Vera Blum (or Bloom), country singer and musician (electric bass). She started playing music at age 14 and has played in several country bands since then. Vera says she “made a few records but did not have a hit. I used the name Marie Mills because they didn’t think Vera Blum would do anything for the public. Neither did Marie Mills.” Vera lives in Wright City and continues a busy musical career.
Vera Blum was, with Dennis Boren, the main stars of the Oran Brook's All-Star Midwest Opry at the end of the sixties. She still performs today in Missouri with the Silver Wings Band.
Wow...Sherry Taylor was my mother. She spoke very fondly about her good friends Vera and Scotty and playing in the bad "The Gadabouts" in her younger years. I just found this old record and looked up the name "Vera Bloom" and it brought me here. Mom passed away in 2004, but her memories and stories will remain with me forever.
