jazz vocalist
I am finally launching a project I’ve been wanting to do for a very long time now: a celebration of the one and only Carmen McRae. Carmen has been such a strong influence on me over the years. It is extremely exciting for me to share my love of her with all of you by doing a series of upcoming shows at three wonderful venues.
The first one will be Saturday night, September 19 at the beautiful Faust Harrison Piano Showroom in Sherman Oaks. I have chosen a wide range of her iconic songs that have touched me deeply.
This concert will be followed on Friday, October 9 by a night at the fabulous new jazz club in Santa Barbara The Grand on State where we will continue to explore Carmen’s extraordinary body of work.
Finally, on Tuesday, October 27 I will be at the world famous Baked Potato in Studio City where I will perform the material from her legendary “Carmen Sings Monk” album.
I hope you can join us for one or all of these concerts. Please go to my SHOWS page for more info. Tickets for most of these events are available now.
My new recording project with pianist Kenny Werner "Piano and Voice" is now available on all the music platforms. Go to my MUSIC page and click on the CD cover
