The Beat Divas – Mady Kaye, Beth Ullman and Dianne Donovan – have been singing together for 25 years! All three women are accomplished jazz vocalists and songwriters. Two – Mady and Beth – are also voice teachers. Dianne is an esteemed host at KMFA Classical Radio, as well as a consummate interviewer. With three separate and successful careers, they bring their many skills and years in the music biz to fruition as The Beat Divas. It’s a heady brew.

Over their Divas’ career they have presented cooking classes at Central Market Cooking School (19 years), sung at clubs, concerts and jazz fests. Their repertoire ranges from originals to jazz standards to American pop jazzed up. Their blend is amazing. And their joy in the music and each other shines so brightly. Wear your shades!

“Conventional wisdom tells us that three women, let alone three Divas, will not play well together and that too many cooks spoil a dish. Throw conventional wisdom out the window this time, because the three multi-talented women who make up The Beat Divas have hit on the perfect recipe, their voices blending seamlessly in delicious harmonies. Any performance cooked up by these Divas is bound to be a very tasty treat.”
