"Meryl Romer embodies the resonant renaissance of the romantic singers of the 40's. Her sound has the voluptuous shape of Sarah Vaughan, the ease and elegance of Ella Fitzgerald and a heart-shuddering vibrato reminiscent of Judy Garland. She sings with a tempered tenderness of heart blown through the essence of maturity. When she wraps her velvet voice around the lyrical standards of jazz, there is an innuendo of innocence that yields a most sophisticated lady."
– Vocalist and Producer, Casey Collins
"So Sure" picked as #1 jazz album for 2009 on JazzTimes.com by reviewer, Ms. Susan Frances
(On Meryl Romer’s Metropolitan Room engagement, NY Tour, Fall ‘09):
It's been a long time since I've heard such a luscious and soulful performance. Meryl took the house by storm! ~ Joe Franklin, Bloomberg Radio
Had a great time singing to the sounds of Erik Deutsch on organ and Amy Shelley's drums at Billie's Black...what a wonderful venue. It was a magical evening for my return visit to the Metropolitan Room on April 18th...great crowd and elegant venue to sing in. It was a great first collaboration with Art Hirahara on piano...and Jonti Siman, bass and Marc Dalio, drums sealed the good sounds in.
Looking forward to my next visit to New York....stay tuned!!
Erik Deutsch, Jonti Siman, Marc Dalio and James Hoskins joined me for our third mountain house concert in January....my kitchen was alive with sound.
Looking forward to doing more music in Denver....Burnsley Hotel with Emily Takahashi on May 21st.
CD's are available on the music page through CD Baby, I-tunes and Amazon....thanks for visiting. EPK is available at www.sonicbids.com/MerylRomer
