Friday Night Music — Paula Byrne, jazz vocalist
Paula Byrne's voice has been described “like chilled champagne on a hot summer day”. She moves easily between songs that are lush and beautiful to highly rhythmic, wild rides. Her sense of humor, revival of obscure songs and new twists on old standards keeps the audience engaged and enraptured. Paula has performed with many Portland greats, including Randy Porter, Steve Christofferson, George Colligan, Todd Marston, Matt Sazima, Vince Frates, Greg Goebel, Mike Horsfall, Dave Captein, Eric Gruber, and Ron Steen, to name a few.
