We met Janet at a Virtual Vaudeville hosted by Michael Cumella (Phonographdjmac) and immediately hit it off. Janet is an extraordinary chanteuse with an incredible band: Janet Klein and her Parlor Boys.

A brief history about the song! "Shine On, Harvest Moon" was composed in 1908 by Nora Bayes. Nora Bayes was a famous Vaudeville performer once billed as, "The Greatest Single Woman Singing Comedienne in the World." Nora Bayes composed "Shine On, Harvest Moon" in 1908, the same year she married and teamed with Jack Norworth who wrote the lyrics. When they performed together, they were billed as "Nora Bayes, Assisted and Admired by Jack Norworth."
