The Jazz Voyager

Back in the States from a whirlwind roundtrip across the pond to France and back on the east coast, heading south and bundled up and landed in Charlotte, North Carolina. The Jazz Voyager is on his way to Middle C Jazz tonight to be in the audience to check out a young, talented pianist and provocateur by the name of Connie Han. She is a member of this new wave of jazz artists who are bringing an edgy brand of modern and traditional energy to jazz.

I am excited to hear what she has to say musically on this one night opportunity. It all happens tomorrow but as usual when I have friends in town I always fly in early to hang out with them. This Jazz Voyager doesn’t waste a trip and not break bread.

Located at 300 S Brevard Street 28202. As always for more information visit notoriousjazz.com/event.

AIMÉE ALLEN

With two decades on the New York scene and five albums to her credit, Pittsburgh native Aimée Allen has impressed listeners with her warm, creative, swinging vocals and mastery of American, Brazilian and European jazz traditions.

She is also a thought-provoking, insightful songwriter and has no hesitation about making social statements in her compositions. She’ll be backed by a strong group of accompanists, including guitarist Ricardo Grilli, bassist Michael O’Brien and drummer Tiago Michelin.

“A brilliant singer and even more thoughtful lyricist”
– H. Allen Williams, JazzTimes

Showtimes: 4:00pm & 6:00pm
