About the event
What do you get when you mix Jerry Lee Lewis with the funk and soul of James Brown, mix in the sass of KoKo Taylor and wit of Bette Midler, with the power of Mahalia Jackson, and top it off with a contagious Cheshire Cat Grin? You get Doña Oxford.
As a keyboardist and singer, Doña has played with many Rock and Blues legends including Keith Richards, Van Morrison, Roger Daltrey, Ginger Baker, Albert Lee, Buddy Guy, Bob Weir, Levon Helm, Hubert Sumlin, Jimmy Vivino, Leland Sklar and her idol, the former Chuck Berry sideman and Father of Rock & Roll Piano, Johnnie Johnson!
While Doña’s mad fingers fly over the piano, the presence, passion and power of her voice saturate every note that comes from her lips. Her closing showstopper, “Doe’s Boogie” explains why they call her "the boogie woogie woman”. It is 10 minutes of sheer magic.
