Marlene VerPlanck, Dave Cottle Trio

Marlene VerPlanck started out as a very young vocalist with the Charlie Spivak and Tex Beneke. During a brief stint with the last Dorsey Brothers Orchestra, she met her future husband, musician/arranger Billy VerPlanck. In time, Marlene became one of the nation's busiest studio singers, backing up vocalists ranging from Frank Sinatra and Mel Torme to Kiss. Today Marlene performs across North America and much of Western Europe, while a growing roster of solo CDs continue to win critical acclaim.
