There was only ever one singer like Peggy Lee. At the mention of her name, a warm, wistful smile comes over the listener’s face. In that dreamy look you can almost hear that unforgettable voice crooning “Is That All There Is?”, “Why Don’t You Do Right?”, “Fever”, “It’s a Good Day”, “I Don’t Know Enough About You”…..the list is endless.
“A Tribute to Peggy Lee" features the classic music of Peggy Lee. Heather Bishop, known as a gifted vocalist and songwriter, is also a sensitive interpreter of songs written by others. In this portrayal of a great singer’s life, Heather successfully captures the essence of Peggy Lee through her music, while skillfully weaving vignettes of Peggy’s life throughout. She brings us all our favorite songs from almost four decades of music.
The world lost a wonderful voice with Peggy Lee’s passing. Heather Bishop breathes life back into the story of how one woman struggled against all life’s odds, and finally and fully answered the question “Is That All There Is?”

As we move into the new century, Heather moves into her fourth decade of performing and touring, first with an all women''s dance band in the early 70''s and then as a solo artist.

She also has toured several times in Australia and in Scotland and Wales.
Heather has always lived her belief that when she gives voice to the truth in
her own life, it strikes a chord in other people''s lives as well. And what a voice! Heather''s resonant, expressive vocals can take you anywhere you want to go.
In concert, Heather makes you laugh, touches your heart and lifts up your
spirit. She offers up a feast of her own originals, choice classics and selections from other contemporary singer-songwriters.
