SUMMARY:VANESSA RUBIN & HER TRIO
DESCRIPTION:Revered as both a torchbearer and a storyteller\, jazz vocalist Vanessa Rubin possesses a voice hailed for crystalline clarity\, hearth-like warmth\, and playful lioness sass. The Cleveland native brings a wealth of diverse influences to her vocal performance from both the Trinidadian/Caribbean roots of her mother and traditional jazz by way of her Louisiana-born father. Additional homespun influences include the melodic bell tone clarity of a young Capital Records recording artist\, Nancy Wilson\, the fire of Lambert\, Hendricks & Ross\, the sweet sounds of trumpeter Blue Mitchell as well as her love of the Motown Sound…especially girl groups like The Supremes. \nVanessa’s journey to becoming a jazz singer could be said to have begun at an early age. She was characterized by her mother as always being “a very vocal child\,” and knew Vanessa would “do something with that big ol’ mouth of hers.” Coming from parents who valued academia\, discipline\, and hard work\, that “something” was meant to be law school. Attaining a BA from The Ohio State School of Journalism in 1979 was not a disappointment. However\, her decision to pursue a career jazz singing did come as a surprise. \nThe Band: Allyn Johnson ~ piano\, Michael Bowie ~ bass\, Lennie Robinson ~ drums \nTickets: Thursday ~ $35.00 +$7.00 fees | Friday ~ $50.00 +$7.00 fees \n$15.00 minimum food & beverage per person
