One of the most celebrated singers on the current jazz scene, Georgia-born singer Lizz Wright brings an uncanny soulfulness and effortless sense of swing to the bandstand every time she performs. The New York Times described her inimitable voice as “a smooth, dark alto possessed of qualities you might associate with barrel-aged bourbon or butter-soft leather” while noted jazz critic Nate Chinen wrote: “Lizz Wright is well acquainted with the storytelling power of a journey. Her music, rooted in the gospel truths and rustic byways of this country, could be seen as a sustained meditation on movement: not just the flow of bodies in rapturous rhythm, but also the trajectories that mark a life story.”
