Description
Tickets available at The Public Theater box office or By phone at 212-967-7555 Joe's Pub Tickets
A must-see for lovers of world class jazz vocalizing.
- The Los Angeles Times
Featuring Jason Ennis on guitar, Victor Prieto on accordion, Daniel Friedman on drums and Gary Wang on bass.
Born of Trinidadian and English parents, exotic vocalist, composer, and lyricist Tessa Souter (soo-ter) infuses jazz with the soul and passion of flamenco, Indian and Middle Eastern music. One of the most imaginatively programmed vocal sets of recent memory. said the Los Angeles Times, in a rave review of her California debut. Her rendition of Pharoah Sanders's 'The Creator Has a Master Plan' proves that it's possible to be spiritual and sensual at the same time, said the New York Sun. Since her professional debut in 1999 Tessa has performed with some of the world's jazz greats, including Mark Murphy, Joe La Barbera, Marvin Sewell, Larry Koonse, Latin Grammy nominee Bobby Sanabria and jazz tuba legend Howard Johnson. To quote Los Angeles-based guitarist Larry Koonse, Tessa Souter has all the qualities I value most in a musician: great time, beautiful phrasing, gorgeous sound, a respect for silence, an emotional connection to the moment, and a wonderful ability to tell a story. She is the 'real thing' in every way.
