The venue is rooted in the original American tradition of jazz and the underlying principles of freedom through improvisation, however, they feature a wide range of music that has been inspired by jazz’s world wide diaspora.L

She has received 3 Grammy nominations for her latest album Phoenix. The far-reaching new album finds her poised alongside a curated all-star cast of Wayne Shorter to Dianne Reeves, Georgia Anne Muldrow to Patrice Rushen, and Sonia Sanchez to Angela Davis.
