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

MELISSA STYLIANOU
With her superb partners, the venerable guitarist Gene Bertoncini and the acclaimed bassist Ike Sturm, the Toronto-born vocalist Melissa Stylianou recorded Dream Dancing, a new five-star album of American standards that Downbeat hailed as “a collection of brilliant reinventions.
They play together like a band, not a singer with backing musicians.” The New Yorker called Melissa “a crafty stylist” who “knows that a subtle voice, skillfully employed, can be an effective tool for maximum expression.”

SHEILA JORDAN @ 94!
Sheila Jordan @ 94! featuring Sheila Jordan on vocals, Roni Ben-Hur on guitar & Harvie S on bass!
Charlie Parker called her “the lady with million dollar ears,” and over the years, Sheila Jordan has been one of the most consistently creative singers in jazz. At 94, she remains a superb improviser, a magnificent scat singer, and an emotional interpreter of ballads. Consistently creative for nearly eight decades, Charlie Parker called her “the lady with million dollar ears.”
A colleague of Parker’s in the ‘50’s who wrote lyrics to his compositions, Ms. Jordan’s remarkable career has produced memorable performances, exceptional recordings and numerous awards like NEA Jazz Master.
