Heather Paterson sings Cabaret
Elegant, expressive, and effortlessly cool, Heather Paterson brings her crystalline voice and rich jazz interpretations back to the Sammons stage. A longtime favorite among the Sammons Center’s audiences, Heather infuses every song with heartfelt storytelling, impeccable technique, and the timeless charm of the Great American Songbook. Inspired by jazz legends like Ella Fitzgerald and backed by decades of musical and life experience, she delivers performances that are as moving as they are masterful.
