SUMMARY:Madeleine Peyroux
DESCRIPTION:Support Act: The Carlile Family Band \n\n\n\nFor over three decades\, jazz virtuoso Peyroux has travelled the world and graced the grandest concert halls to do just that – “share the magic of music with audiences\, connect with people and uplift their spirits.” From entertaining passersby as a busker on the streets of Paris\, to captivating thousands on sold out world tours – singular Peyroux has channeled the power of music to bring people together\, dialogue with audiences and build a community. \n\n\n\nPeyroux was spotted by Atlantic’s A&R man Yves Beauvais\, and in 1996 her debut album Dreamland was born. The striking vocalist gained instant recognition as a classic talent with an unmistakable staying power\, and her smokey-crooning voice was likened to Billie Holliday and Ella Fitzgerald.Dreamland delivered sweeping renditions of Fats Waller’s I’m Gonna Sit Right Down and Write Myself a Letter\, Bessie Smith’s Lovesick Blues\, Billie Holiday’s Gettin’ Some Fun Out of Life\, Patsy Cline’s Walking After Midnight\, and Piaf’s romantic La Vie En Rose\, all delivered by some of the finest musicians around including Cyrus Chestnut\, Greg Cohen\, Vernon Reid\, James Carter and Leon Parker to name but a few. \n\n\n\nBut it was Careless Love (Rounder)\, released eight years later that propelled her to jazz superstardom. Produced by multiple Grammy winner Larry Klein (Joni Mitchell\, Herbie Hancock\, Melody Gardot) it signaled the start of a long-lasting Klein-Peyroux collaboration that would craft several classic\, universally acclaimed albums. \n\n\n\n\nPurchase Tickets
