Dodie Stevens is a music legend from the 50’s and 60’s, best known for her international hit “Pink Shoe Laces”, in 1959. Dodie received a gold record for it, at the young age of thirteen. She followed with “Yes, I’m Lonesome Tonight”, “No” and “Merry, Merry Christmas Baby”, which all hit the Billboard charts in the early 60’s.
In the early 70’s she joined Sergio Mendes and Brasil ’77 touring internationally and recording three albums for A&M Records until 1973, when she left the group. She continued as a background singer, working for Harry Belafonte, Boz Scaggs and Loretta Lynn, to name just a few. For twelve years she worked exclusively for Mac Davis, as a singer/dancer, in Las Vegas, Lake Tahoe and every major music theater worldwide, including numerous appearances on The Tonight Show, Midnight Special and Solid Gold. She also appeared in his television specials with Dolly Parton, Donna Summer and Luther Vandross, until Mac retired in 1988. In addition, in the 80’s, you would have heard Dodie’s voice on television commercials including Sprint and Dole Pineapple.
By 1990 she was starring in, as well as co-producing her Doo Wop Revue, “Bop”, a high energy show full of some of the most memorable songs from the early years of rock & roll, including her own hit, “Pink Shoe Laces”. For the next few years they worked the casino circuit in Las Vegas, Lake Tahoe and Reno, to standing ovations!
Shortly thereafter, Dodie began touring with other famous recording artists from the 50’s and 60’s and included her talented daughter, Stephanie in her shows. They later formed a southern-rock band, “a.k.a. Stevens”, singing classic rock & roll and country, and co-writing all their originals. They recorded only one album “Outlaw of the Heart”. They were the opening act for Toby Keith and worked a variety of venues across the country.
