Miche Braden channels blues legend Bessie Smith in 'The Devil's Music' at Cleveland Play House
"With my having been a club singer and working with jazz cats and blues cats, doing R&B and rock 'n' roll and everything, it just kind of lived in me -- the life of an entertainer on the road, performing. It felt good, almost natural, to step into her shoes". -- Miche Braden on becoming Bessie Smith in "The Devil's Music: The Life and Blues of Bessie Smith."
