It’s the joy she exudes with every note that makes Elaine’s performances unforgettable. A graduate of The Theater Repertory Program at California State Northridge,
Elaine worked for years in Chicago’s theater scene before turning her focus to jazz.
Dame has risen to the top ranks of Chicago jazz singers. She possesses all the musicality you could want in a true jazz singer – centered intonation, an enviable command of rhythm, and a translucent but powerful instrument." ~ Neil Tesser, Grammy award-winning critic, and author, The Playboy Guide to Jazz Accompanying Dame is Chicago jazz guitarist Andy Brown, who has worked at many of the city’s finest jazz venues and continues to play weekly solo performances at The Green Mill and leads his quartet at Andy’s Jazz Club. He counts Barbra Streisand’s 2009 appearance on the Oprah Winfrey Show among the many high-profile singers he has accompanied.
