“I just want to say that I saw Georgette Fry’s tribute to Etta James at the Grand Theatre in Kingston last night and it was, without a doubt, the best show I’ve seen this year!
Georgette was SENSATIONAL and she received two standing ovations! This is definitely a MUST SEE show! …This show isn’t just for Etta James fans (of which I am)
but for anyone who wants to witness a spectacular night of blues, R&B, jazz, soul and gospel music.” C. Bode, Scully Love Promo

Beautiful! This kind of soul and passion is missing from too much of our modern music. I’d love to see Georgette sing live!
I really wish that you could see her sing, Darcia!! She’s got more soul & passion in her voice than most of the famous pop stars out there right now, that’s for sure. She’s also my neighbour and I know her well enough to say that she’s a really nice woman too. We go on outings with our dogs together sometimes. She’s a very cool lady!
