SUMMARY:TESSA SOUTER
DESCRIPTION:The vocalist celebrates the release of her album Release Party of Shadows and Silence: The Eric Satie Project. She brings with her pianist Luis Perdomo\, drummer Billy Drummond\, bassist Boris Kozlov\, plus special guest saxophonist Steve Wilson. \nNew York-based\, London-born of Afro-Trinidadian and English parents\, New York Times critics pick Tessa Souter grew up surrounded by music. Her mother\, a talented amateur singer\, taught her to sing when she was three\, and she took piano lessons from aged eight to 12\, before switching to the guitar\, learning by ear to accompany herself singing songs by\, among others\, Sandy Denny and Jacquie McPhee of the jazz-folk bands Fairport Convention and Pentangle. \n“My piano teacher had advised me to take up singing when she heard my voice so\, when around that age\, my mother told me that my birth father had been a singer\, it felt like a connection to this person I had never known\,” says Tessa. When she finally met him in her late 20s\, the first thing he did was sing to her in the street. “Just the sound of his beautiful tenor\, vibrated every bone in my body.” \nTickets: $30.00
