The Mills Brothers - THE ELOQUENT MUSIC OF THE LEGENDARY MILLS BROTHERS CONTINUES TO CAPTURE THE FANCY OF AUDIENCES WORLDWIDE! The Mills Brothers return to Sweet & Hot Music Festival! For more than uninterrupted 75 years, the magical appeal of the eloquent music of The Mills Brothers has attracted adoring audiences worldwide. The magic continues unabated today under the leadership of John Mills - son, grandson and nephew of the original group's members - who recreates the inimitable sounds of The Mills Brothers while vocalizing the multitude of hit songs that made them famous.  |

Ernestine Anderson - The sassy Miss Ernestine returns to the Sweet and Hot bringing five decades of musical expertise in her satchel. She was nominated four times for a Grammy award, has sung at both the Kennedy Center and at Carnegie Hall. She has come a long way from the local talent contest when she was twelve years old and only knew two songs, we are so glad she did. Welcome Back. |

The Hues Corporation - will be on hand to enliven our evening with a dynamite set of danceable tunes from the Rhythm and Blues Songbook. The blues are not so blue when these voices get hold of them and turn them into swinging dance numbers. Their appearance will also be a tribute to the wonderful St. Clair Lee who left us for that celestial choir in February.

Herb Jeffries - has moved to the Midwest, still he may be able to join us again this year and bring his wonderful ageless voice to our stage , in any case we shall also honor his long and varied career with a special nod by the Society of Singers in an hour of Jeffries hits selected from over six decades of vocal excellence….including of course- Flamingo.

The Cunninghams - Don and Alicia Cunningham grace the Sweet and Hot Stage with a magical blending of harmonies that illustrate the possibilities of the Great American Songbook. This couple brings to our stage for the first time, a collection of our favorites played out with love and just a touch Cunningham brilliance. It may be the first, but we certainly hope it won’t be the last.
