Judy Wexler-Alvas Showroom
January 19, 2019 @ 8:00 pm
$20.00A touring and recording artist, Judy Wexler, has headlined at jazz festivals, performing arts centers, and major jazz clubs both nationally and internationally. She has released four CDs that have all topped the national jazz charts. A natural storyteller with a distinctive voice full of shadings, she knows how to dig into a song and find its essence. Displaying an unerring ear for underexposed gems and possessing a pliably warm, lustrous sound, she will perform songs associated with a diverse mix of jazz and pop legends, including King Pleasure, Louis Armstrong, Sonny Rollins, Blossom Dearie, Richie Havens, Rickie Lee Jones, and Bob Dylan. JazzTimes has said that Judy is “one of the most focused, unpretentious, no-nonsense, bop-oriented jazz singers around.” “Judy Wexler is more than a mere singer of songs. She’s an actress, mood painter, song archaeologist, and vocalist par excellence.” ALL ABOUT JAZZ
“Based on the evidence… Judy Wexler can sing almost anything.” Susan Stamberg, NPR WEEKEND EDITION
