Michelle DuVall has been called "a cross between Ella Fitzgerald and Bernadette Peters" by Madison Newspapers' Rhythm, and "a vocalist who can take a standard and make it shine" by Isthmus. DuVall and instrumentalist Doug Brown have gained a reputation a reputation in the Midwest for playing some of the most swinging and refined jazz around.
"My approach has always been keeping it pretty straight-ahead, keeping it true to form. I don't do a lot of scatting. I don't play with the melodies very much. But it still swings," DuVall explained to Isthmus.
Brown and DuVall's refreshing renditions of classic swing songs can be heard on their highly praised first CD, "Standards". Their second CD, "Chillin' At The White Horse" features the duo performing Brown's original jazz tunes with their "rock solid quintet".
