Swing With Sonny and Perely

If you are into jazz, Bossa Nova and numbers from the great American Songbook, then get yourself over the The Boat House tonight, for the sweet and sultry sounds of Sonny and Perely.

The husband and wife duo, who will be playing with guest bass player Lew Scott, draw from the works of Berlin, Gershwin and Porter as well as the sexy sounds of Bossa Nova.

Sonny and Perley are in the middle of their summer tour, which has taken them through upstate New York and into Vermont and Connecticut.
