8 SOLERA DIAMOND VALLEY | DECEMBER 2017 By Berkie Harris, Resident The Ronettes, the Shirelles, the Dixie Cups, the Crystals, Martha and the Vandellas. I loved the girl groups of the 50s and 60s so much that I wanted to quit high school and be in one of these groups. I used to practice in front of the mirror in my attic bedroom, while playing a 45 from my arsenal of records, as far from the eyes and ears of my super vigilant and ever present mother as I could get. Crooning "da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron" I was in teen girl heaven fantasizing about the outfits for my group's next album cover. There was one problem, however. I couldn't sing. Not a note and still can't. But here's someone who can: Jonnie Fox and the Satinettes and they are bringing their tribute show to our Lodge on Saturday, January 20. The Satinettes are a trio of female vocalists paying tribute to the iconic girl groups of the 40s, 50s and 60s. Together, they provide a vintage costumed show of beautiful harmonies and memorable tunes. Songs like Chapel of Love, Be My Baby, Bobby's Girl, Locomotion, One Fine Day and My Guy. Their repertoire is extensive. The Satinettes are a local group with headquarters in Temecula. They play surrounding venues and events such as casinos, wineries, car cruises, and private parties. Often they sing at Pala Casino's Tuesday 60 Plus Club. This is where I first saw them and as anyone who has been to Pala knows; the tribute acts there are first class. Jonnie is the founder and lead vocalist. She is originally from New Orleans and began singing with bands in the French Quarter in the early 70s at the age of 17. The other group members also have experience singing and performing professionally. Join us on the evening of January 20 in the Lodge Ballroom for what I guarantee will be one of the best shows of the year. Jonnie Fox & the Satinettes
