Tonight I went to listen to a jazz singer : Gretchen Parlato, yes in Brisbane! That was great again, very nice voice, very fine and smooth...That was my second time to go to the the Brisbane Powerhouse and it was nice again, this place is really a good artistic place.



Based in New York, Gretchen Parlato has created a buzz in the jazz world. She was the first vocalist to be accepted into the Thelonious Monk Institute of Jazz Performance and her debut album was named number 5 Best Progressive Jazz CD of 2005 by Jazz Nation.
Fusing jazz, Brazilian, and African elements, Gretchen’s ethereal sound and pure vocal prowess have led her to study and perform with jazz luminaries Dianne Reeves, Oscar Castro-Neves, Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Terence Blanchard, Lionel Loueke and Dave Holland.

Experience the extraordinary magic of Gretchen Parlarto as she scats, coos and leaps through complex tempo and rhythmic shifts in one of the most highlyanticipated concerts.

Here's a small video I've made tonight, enjoy it and please visit her website.
