"The Blue Roses--"A Sentimental Journey"

This sister trio brings back the "good old days" of the 30's, 40's and 50's music in the style of the great sister acts. Combining blood harmony with the most original musical backups available and completing the sentimental journey with costumes of the eras.

"The Blue Rose" are three sisters, Donna, Tina and Angela, who have been singing together for their entire lives. They were raised in a diverse musical family including their father, a published country/western songwriter, and their mother who sang and enjoyed all of the music from Broadway shows. She was also an active member of The Sweet Adelines. Their uncle was one of the original Texas Playboys and played "fiddle" for many of the name bands in that field and continues to be a vital part of the country music scene today. Needless to say, their harmony is influenced in some way by each of the different syles of music that they were introduced to, making their "gut harmony" truly unique.

Each of the sisters is a songwriter; one pop/country, one country, and one gospel. As children, the two eldest sisters sang regularly on a local program in Southern California and appeared on The Hometown Jamboree with Willie Nelson, Merle Travis and other country greats. After moving to Tulsa, Oklahoma, the youngest sister was added to the group, and the trio was born. They spent the next few years singing country, going to school, marrying and raising families. A chance request of a song from the 40's convinced them that they should be singing songs from that era. For the last several years they have been enthusiastically welcomed into their community by those who also enjoy this style of reminiscent music, and encourage "The Blue Roses" to "Keep it alive for our children."

In addition to their appearances locally, they will be performing at the 2004 Tulsa State Fair in the Grace Health Pavillion located in the IPE building. Performance dates are Thursday through Sunday, September 30th through Ocober 3rd. Shows begin at 6:30PM and 8:30PM.
