Good Shot Judy
November 19, 2023 | 3 pm @ Southwest Virginia Community College
Citizens for the Arts introduces Good Shot Judy Sunday, Nov.19, at 3 p.m., at Southwest Virginia Community College King Community Center, Cedar Bluff, Virginia. Note the change of venue from Richlands Middle School Auditorium, because of renovations.
A Good Shot Judy show offers all those tunes you know just from growing up in America – songs you can at least hum along to, if you don’t outright know most of the words. But the music itself is only part of the band’s allure; there’s something electric in the execution, and it’s that vigor that carries the day as much as the pull of recognition.
Sponsored by an anonymous donor, Singleton Funeral Service, Frank L. Smoot Charitable Trust and the Town of Cedar Bluff with contributions from James and Becky Belcher, Danny and Diana Coulthard and TruPoint Bank. This performance is also supported, in part, by the Virginia Commission for the Arts, which received support from the Virginia General Assembly and the National Endowment for the Arts, a Federal agency.
Sound. Energy. Swagger. All these arrive onstage when Good Shot Judy shows up. Grounded in the swinging cadence of the big band era, Good Shot Judy boldly ventures wherever whimsy leads them. The big amp jazz band brings melodic muscle to every show, fueled by revelers young and old who eagerly follow them on an exhilarating ride through this golden age of music.
Good Shot Judy specializes in delivering top-notch classic vocal jazz and recreating the classic nightclub entertainment feel of Las Vegas in its prime. From the swingin’ sounds of Sinatra, Basie, and contemporaries like Michael Buble, and Harry Connick Jr., to the ballads of Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday and back to the high energy Latin Dance big band sound, Good Shot Judy has got you covered.
