Trudy Desmond

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Trudy Desmond (unknown - 19 February 1999) was a jazz singer. She sang standards in a cabaret style, with little improvisation but a clear voice and light touch. She moved from New York to Toronto around 1970.

She recorded four albums: RSVP (1988, Concord Jazz); Tailor Made (1991, Jazz Alliance); Make Me Rainbows (1995, Koch Jazz); My One and Only (1998, Justin Time). All four albums are represented in a career-summing compilation, A Dream Come True: The Best of Trudy Desmond (2005, Justin Time).
