CARMEN BRADFORD
February 22 @ 7:00 pm ~8:30 pm EST
Jazz royalty Carmen Bradford takes the stage in the All Saints’ series on Saturday, February 22, accompanied by Reginald Thomas on piano. A 2024 Grammy Award winner for her vocals on Basie Swings the Blues—the Count Basie Orchestra.
Carmen was born with music in her soul as the daughter of legendary cornetist Bobby Bradford and renowned vocalist and composer Melba Joyce. At age twenty-two, she was discovered by Count Basie, beginning a connection with the Basie orchestra that has lasted for decades. Her distinctive voice graces film, stage, television, and radio productions as well as performances with other orchestras across the country.
Though she calls Atlanta home, Carmen also teaches at Michigan State University. Her pianist, Reginald Thomas, is the coordinator of the internationally recognized Northern Illinois School of Music jazz studies program, the director of the NIU Jazz Orchestra, and a featured artist in his own right.
