- Judy Chamberlain, is an American jazz singer, bandleader and journalist known for her spontaneity, lively performance style and extensive repertoire, estimated to include several thousand songs from the Great American Songbook. An exciting entertainer, she has "mastered the art of mesmerizing both the audience and her own band," according to Jazz Critic's Scott Yanow's review of her in the All Music Guide to Jazz. The Los Angeles Times Jazz Critic Don Heckman has called Judy, "remarkably eclectic and versatile... always an intriguing interpreter of the standards" and has written that she is "almost guaranteed to know your favorite love song, no matter how obscure. " Growing up in a New York City entertainment family, Chamberlain was taken regularly to the Plaza Hotel, the Stork Club, Sardi's and the hole-in-the wall jazz clubs of West 52nd Street. One night, she heard Mabel Mercer singing Cole Porter tunes — with Cole Porter in the room. "I was just a little kid, but I was hooked," she says. "Those lyrics were great. I had no idea what they meant, but I knew I loved them. " She started singing professionally at age 13, focused on the swing idiom and with a strong desire not to let anyone turn her into "the next Theresa Brewer. " Following a move to Los Angeles, California in 1980, Chamberlain wrote lifestyle columns and restaurant reviews for the Orange Coast Daily Pilot in Costa Mesa and was soon tapped to write society and op-edcolumns for the paper. She reviewed restaurants for the Torrance, CA Daily Breeze, the Los Angeles Times Calendar Live and Cox Interactive Media's LAInsider. com, hosted "Dining With Judy" on K-OCEAN 103.1 FM in Newport Beach and "Savoire Fare" on the Orange County News Channel. Chamberlain has performed with her band in numerous concert settings and jazz clubs on the West Coast and serves as artistic director for the nationally acclaimed Spazio Jazz Supper Club in Sherman Oaks. In 2005, Chamberlain fronted a ten-piece band with guitarist Al Viola for a "Jazz Salute to Frank Sinatra" in Hollywood. She has performed in the famed Playboy Jazz Festival and appeared on E! Entertainment, The Style Network and ABC’s “The Bachelor. ” As a bandleader and entertainer, she has been compared to Miles Davis, who — like Chamberlain — never told the band what he was going to do until he did it. Chamberlain has released one CD, the 2002 "Road Trip" on JazzBaby Records, a compilation of some of her favorite standards.
