Recording artist and actor...
Hailing from beautiful St. Louis, Missouri, Gayle started her singing career with the Al Molos Trio, wowing crowds with weekend performances at weddings and private events. Moving to Los Angeles, she started vocal training with Seth Riggs and his associate, Roger Love who suggested that she "just get out there and work!". So, Gayle quickly won a spot at the Beverly Hills Tony Roma's restaurant alongside pianist David Moscow, and branched out later to both the Santa Monica and Encino locations. Gayle has performed in many lounges in Las Vegas, such as the famed Desert Inn, Sands, Dunes and Ballys' Hotels. She has opened for Fred Travelena in Florida and John Gary in Houston. Gayle recorded a compilation of classic timeless standards, including unforgettable songs like "The More I See You", "Come Fly with Me", "Old Black Magic", and the ever-popular broadway ballad "All I Ask of You" from the Phantom of the Opera. She also covers Patsy Cline's "Sweet Dreams" with ease and then moves effortlessly to pop ballads such as "How Do You Keep the Music Playing" and "What'll I Do". Entitled "Charlie Shaffer presents Gayle Beverly", the CD is available for purchase at gladmusicco.com. You may listen to several cuts from this beautiful CD by clicking on the "Links" page. With twenty-five movies to her credit, she has branched out into the film industry working as a background actor in blockbusters like "Oceans 11" and it's sequel; "Rocky Balboa", "What Happens in Vegas", and "Get Him to the Greek"...just to name a few. Having already had several speaking roles in two short films and a Korean television mini-series, Gayle was lucky enough to land a day player role recently as a party store cashier in the independent film entitled "An Entire Body", featuring the young and talented Audrey Scott, who had a role in "Secretariat". Gayle's beautiful speaking voice can also be heard as the narrator for a timely documentary regarding the proposed Yucca Mountain Project entitled "Subversive Doubt", which can be sampled online by clicking here.
