June 2008
The lovely ladies of swing (Boswell N'awlins style) are rehearsing for Ascona and the Berlin "Sing Sing Sing Sing" cabaret show created by and for them.
Come see them - the public performances in New Orleans include some of the show material.
May 2008
The official post-festival, pre-summer,
CD release party for “Puttin It On” will be at Snug Harbor (626
Frenchmen St.) on Thursday, May 29, 8 & 10pm. All Geminis are
also invited to celebrate their sign along with Yvette, who was born
on this date a few years earlier. Check our schedule for details on
the plethora of activities between now and June 25, when we board
Swiss Air for the Ascona Jazz Festival in Switzerland
(www.jazzascona.ch/
June 27 – July 7,), then head north to Berlin for a month long
engagement opening on July 17 at Bar-Jeder Vernunft
(www.bar-jeder-vernunft.de/),
one of Berlin’s premier cabaret venues. In typical Pfister
Pfashion, we’re bringing high-heeled shoes AND babies, so it should
be a hoot!
April 2008
Our latest CD, “Puttin' It On,” is
ready in time for our French Quarter Fest and Jazz Fest performances.
With Spencer Bohren (www.spencerbohren.com/)
at the production helm, we experimented with a little bit different
sound than our previous CD’s, and we’re all pleased with the
result.
December 2007
Still lots a goin's on. We are still feeling wonderful from the Boswell Centennial. So much talent came to New Orleans to celebrate the musical accomplishments of the first ever jazz harmonists, the Boswell Sisters. Yvette was moved to tears as she declared "Happy Birthday Connie". We are singing twice a week, plus a few upcoming specials.
October 2007
Whole lotta singin' goin on! Despite a lot of comings and goings, we're keeping our regular weekly gigs at the Spotted Cat and the Marigny Brasserie going strong, we're rehearsing new material (in true Pfister Pfashion, with a baby on a hip)and getting ready to head back into the studio. Shhh, keep your fingers crossed. . .
July 2007
Well, kids, we've pulled another rabbit out of a hat (in addition to all those dead pregnancy-test-rabbits), and the Pfister Sisters will be in France from Bastille Day, July 14th till the 31st! Since Debbie decided to stay home with all the boys this time (Henry's still pretty new, after all), and Amasa's already in Europe with Charmaine Neville, Karen Stoehr and Joshua Paxton will be joining Holley and Yvette for the latest in our Pfister Pfrance and Pfood Extravaganza. During
our return to Saintes, we'll be performing on a double bill with Chanticleer, a 12-voice chorale out of San Francisco, as well as in a concert of our own during Les Jardins de la Ville series. Meanwhile, check out Debbie's solo act at the Brasserie on Sundays and the Spotted Cat on Wednesdays. We'll return to both in August, as well as a repeat concert at the Botanical Gardens in City Park.
April 2007
Debbie Davis had her second baby boy, Henry Davis Perrine, early on April 9! The whole family is doing great, and special props to Karen Stoehr for standing in for Debb during this festival season.
November 2006
We're here in Saintes, France having the time of our lives, eating, drinking, and singing our way through the French countryside, with a side trip to Paris, of course! Follow the adventures at

Summer 2006
We've been filmed by documentarians, recorded by (and played on) National Public Radio, and featured in a lovely newspaper article about a woman moving back "home" after the storm (after 17 years away) and re-discovering the joys of her native City.
April- May 2006
Our first Post-K French Quarter Fest and Jazz Fest appearances, with some old and some new band members, were big successes.
