Steve Tyrell and Karrin Allyson
Performance(s):
Friday, April 16, 2004: 8:00 p.m.
Critics have described Steve Tyrell as having a voice with earthy qualities like New Orleans mojo man Dr. John and soulster Billy Vera. His broad appeal lies in his ability to recast many of the great American Standards with a tinge of soul appeal. Tyrell's 1999 debut, A New Standard reached No.3 on the jazz charts, and stayed on top of the charts for almost 100 weeks. Tyrell's second CD release, Standard Time hit No. 2 after just four weeks on the jazz charts. With his solid rhythm and blues background, Tyrell sings some of the greatest American classics ever written.
A critically-acclaimed international recording artist, Karrin Allyson is a widely accomplished jazz singer in her own right who has received rave reviews around the nation. With a broad repertoire, brilliant improvisational style and a slender, sunny voice, she is one of the most dynamic and creative vocalists of our day. An extensive touring schedule of passionate and inspired performances and two Grammy nominations has vaulted Karrin Allyson into greater prominence as jazz lovers everywhere latch on to this ever-growing talent.
