Sarasota singer releases album, performs Tampa concert

   If you're up toward Tampa this evening, you might want to stop in and see Sarasota songstress Katherine Michelle Tanner in concert at Unity of Tampa. She'll be performing Christmas standards and her own original Christmas songs.
   There are a couple of reasons for the concert. It's a fundraiser for Gorilla Theatre, one of Tampa's oldest and best professional theater companies that is returning after a hiatus of several years.

   It's also a chance to buy her new CD, "Dreaming of a White Christmas," which was just released today.
   If you can't make the concert, you can get the album by emailing treefortprodcutions@gmail.com, leave your number and someone will contact you. (A website that will let people order is in the works.)
   Tanner's an accomplished singer and dancer, but she's best known to area audiences as an actor. She was recently in "Time Stands Still" for Banyan Theatre and "The Amish Project" at American Stage.
  Tampa Unity is at 3302 W. Horatio St. Call 813-879-2914. Tickets are $25 at the door.
