Dear Deborah:
Thank you so much for sharing your time and talents with us at our
fourth
annual Pacific Beach Fest. Your love of music did "shine" on that
stage
in song and classical violins!

"I enjoyed your "take" on all the old standards that I've known for
forever, and that have been "covered" SO many times by SO many artists;
but you manage to do something... the word I think of is "fresh"...
Your
stylization is unique, while being free and easy... and it isn't easy
to
do make those oldies sound "new", but, again, you really have a unique
"way" about your presentation that is most enjoyable. Your love of
what
your doing really comes through, too.

I am a brazilian lover music who likes My Funny Valentine very, very
much. I have a kind of collection of this beautiful music which has been
recognized by Guinness World of Records. I bought the music at iTunes
and I liked very much your interpretation with the piano.
This song is the version number 1502 of my "collection" of My Funny
Valentine.

" Deborah is a hot
number when it comes to moving you
with her soft, sexy voice. What a talent! I first
heard her perform on the Carnival Cruise Line Elation.
I asked her to sing at my on-board birthday party and
much to my surprise, she accepted. What a treat! She
gave me her first CD, Cold Wind, which I play on
my Power PC as I write. I've been a following fan of
hers ever since. When she came to Santa Monica, I
caught her performance at the Bob Burns Piano Bar.
Boy, was that a night! If you ever get an opportunity
to see her perform, you'll become a fast fan, too. I
can't wait for her next CD.
There's no one like her when it comes to singing torch
songs. No one can touch her sound or style. "

" Deborah shares a
part of herself and she has fun with it. There is an energy
between her and the audience. She is doing what she loves and
has a sense of purpose about it. My Mom and I have enjoyed
watching you live and listening to your CD all the time. I think
you are very talented and you bring joy to my heart. Keep at it.
You are already a success in my book and the best is yet to come."

Thank you for keeping me on your email list. I do not get to hear
you sing very often, due to my heavy work schedule, but when I do, I
hear your incredible growth. It is AMAZING what you have done to
develop your voice. You just get better and better, more authentic
and warmer, every time I hear you. You went from a "good" sounding
voice to a stylish, warm, intimate and emotionally moving delivery.
I am in awe of what you have accomplished. Congrats to you and
whomever is coaching you! It encourages me to get out there and try
again and work toward improvement -something I have not done in
years and years. Looking forward to seeing and hearing you again.

" Debe's first CD which
includes two songs of her own reflect her sentiment as well as her
ability to express her feelings in an intimate relaxed style. This
talent finds a perfect compliment in her natural, fresh and endearing
voice with the necessary upbeat that makes the listener not only enjoy
but also identify with the song."

" Deborah
dares to live her dream. She takes a personal risk and sets an
example. She starts from where she is and moves toward where she
wants to be. She is strong and steady with a sense of hope. She is a
unique, bright and sparkling spirit. What drives her doesn't go away."
