Jeanne will be celebrating her 89th birthday with family, friends and fans. Last year Jeanne Arland Peterson celebrated her new CD “88 Grand” in honor of her 88th birthday. This two CD set covers Jeanne’s past (recordings from the 1940’s and 1950’s) and present. Recent recordings feature some of her talented offspring; Billy Peterson on bass and Paul Peterson on drums. A singer, pianist, and charmer nonpareil, Jeanne Arland Peterson is the matriarch of Minnesota’s First Family of Music. This amazing talent spent 22 years as a staff vocalist and pianist on WCCO, the Twin Cities largest radio station, all the while playing nightclubs and recording in studios. Jeanne's career has many highlights, including performances with Bob Hope, Sonny Stitt and George Benson, just to name a few. She was one of the first two women inducted into the Minnesota Music Hall of Fame (the other being Judy Garland).
