Mary Elizabeth Roché (January 9, 1918 – February 16, 1999) was an American blues and jazz singer. Though she had a sporadic career, she became best known for her version of "Take the "A" Train" with its composer Duke Ellington, and, according to AllMusic, "was famous for her strong, dramatic way of putting across blues material".
