Next up in the Musician's Corner series, is LA-based vocalist Julie Kelly. Born in Oakland, California, she performed with her twin sister a local coffeehouses way back in 1970, thus starting her on the road to becoming a jazz vocalist. The duo opened once for Peter, Paul, and Mary during that time.
In 1971 she spent time in Rio De Janiero in Brazil, where she performed with Carlos Lyra and Luis Eca, absorbing the fertile Brazilian jazz scene.
Later in the decade she spent time in New York and then San Francisco, continuing to perform and honing her craft.
Finally she moved to LA and has resided there since 1980.
She has performed and worked with such artists as Benny Green, Nat Adderley, Ray Brown, John Clayton, and Alan Broadbent.
Her new CD is entitled Freedom Jazz Dance. Included on the album are tunes by Gregory Porter and Gordon Lightfoot.
In the next Musician's Corner, we'll discuss two tunes from the CD, one a medley of songs written by Willie Nelson and Bill Withers, and also an original number reflecting on her time in Brazil.
Don't miss this great introduction to some excellent songs, directly from the artist!
Yours in jazz,
Marty
