Evelyn Russell
Evelyn has been singing all her life. Born and raised in Washington, DC, where she sang in church and school, she came to Florida with a repertoire reaching from jazz and blues to show tunes, ballads, and Motown.
Her first gig with Ted Knight and A Little Knight Music was a big band breakfast concert in 2004.
Since then she's done weddings
with Ted's big band
in Tampa and Boca Raton, and with his orchestra at
Sanibel Harbor Resort, pictured at right.

Augustine and Boca Grande,
and with The World's Smallest Big Band for a wedding in
Gulf Shores, Alabama.
Evelyn appears on Ted's first album, Beautiful Love.
