Stacy Rowles.
Jazz singer, trumpet and flugelhorn player.
Born : September 11, 1955 in Los Angeles, California.
Died : October 30, 2009 in Burbank, California. (complications after a car accident).
Daughter of legendary pianist Jimmy Rowles and dancer Dorothy Rowles.
Stacy Rowles once wrote a note to her father, pianist and composer Jimmy Rowles, stating: "Dear Dad, if you buy me a flugelhorn, I'll play the [expletive] out of it." Indeed she did, and she picked up singing, as well. A longtime mainstay on the Los Angeles jazz scene, she worked with the all-female quintet the Jazzbirds, led by the late multi-instrumentalist Betty O'Hara, as well as the Jazz Tap Ensemble and the DIVA Big Band. Father and daughter initially worked together on instrumental arrangements, and after he began arranging for voice and doing some singing himself, she followed suit. Despite her father's example, she was not attracted to the instrument. She eventually tried an old trumpet that was in the Rowles house and immediately took to it. The vibraphonist and teacher Charlie Shoemake, with whom she studied for a time, told me today, "Stacy was a natural talent. She listened to the right people, and her ear took her to the right places." Ms. Rowles and her father co-led a group in Los Angeles for a time in the early 1990s. She recorded three albums with him. They included "Me And The Moon", which featured her on flugelhorn and as a singer. Jimmy Rowles died in 1996. Excellent trumpeter/flugelhornist and occasional vocalist, Stacy Rowles sadly passed away at age 54 on October 30th.
Stacy Rowles first performed as teenager with her father at the Monterey Jazz Festival. Among her other performance credits, she had been a member of Ann Patterson’s Maiden Voyage Band, the all-woman quintet Jazzbirds, the Jazz Tap Ensemble, the Clayton-Hamilton Jazz Orchestra and the DIVA Big Band.
