If Petrina ever gets back to playing the squares, go see her. In the meantime it seems she fills her schedule with village club shows and golf country clubs and rec center performances. She's a great one woman show with a band in the box backup. When I first started seeing her about six years ago, I had no idea who Adell was but Petrina was singing her hits. She was the first and probably the only act to perform Lady Gaga. I'm a classic rock guy who owned over 4,000 albums before moving here, but it was refreshing to hear something new once in awhile and the way Petrina presents herself you'll be entertained.

She has a tremendous memory. Once she put a pair of her flashing glasses on my face, she sells them at her shows, then I hadn't been able to catch her act for a year and a half, and she saw me at a show and came up and asked, where are your glasses? She gets out and performs and mingles with the crowd during her show, she doesn't just stay on the stage. See the link above and you'll get an idea. She was for a while performing regular at the Waterfront Hotel and Bonifay Country Club. If you've see 'Just Mike' at City Fire, she is a female version of something like that.
I agree, John. I have seen her many times and she is terrific! In general The Villages music on the squares is tailored to people who like 50's and 60's music. They have started to move into the 70's a bit, but we could use more of a variety. I have not heard any music from the 90's except for a few songs when Scooter djs. I do enjoy the music on the square!
