Music
Annie Royer
The French have a word for this wonderful, professional Cabaret Jazz singer and performer. Extraordinaire! Annie Royer, a native of Paris (France), settled in Boston, Massachusetts, for ten years, and now resident of Palm Beach, Florida. She has been captivating audience on both sides of the Atlantic with her musical and dramatic talents and her Gallic charm. Her repertoire ranges from her specialty – soulful and haunting renditions of cabaret songs à la Edith Piaf - to other popular French tunes (Chevalier, Montand, Trenet, Mistinguett, Becaud, Aznavour), and lively performances of Broadway and Jazz favorites. Invariably, listeners of all ages respond with enthusiasm to her invitation for “request songs” in French and English.
Annie Royer’s charismatic style is suited to and engages both, small and large audiences. She is a sought-after entertainer at Jazz Clubs, Concert Stages in Vegas, and Music Jazz Festivals. The MFA Boston had invited her for Bastille's Day. Amazing concert 400 seats SOLD OUT. Annie has 2 recording Solo albums, 10 compilations and she is under HiGH NoTE Records.
