A very rare opportunity to see a major jazz singer from New York, Suzanne Pittson, paired with an L.A. film composer, Bevan Manson, and add in Alex Murzyn on sax, Gordy Johnson Bass and Joe Chellman drums, and you've got one amazing night of music!
Suzanne has performed in the United States, Japan, Europe and Cuba at such major venues as Yoshi’s, Birdland, Catalina’s, Town Hall, Symphony Space, Aaron Davis Hall, Cornelia Street Cafe, Enzo’s Jazz, and has performed and/or recorded with John Patitucci, Buster Williams, Dave Liebman, Steve Wilson, Mike Clark, Jeremy Pelt, Shunzo Ohno, Mark Soskin, Jack Walrath, Chip Jackson, Harvie S, & more.
BUSTER WILLIAMS says - “When you listen to the lovely Ms. Suzanne Pittson, you are being made privy to the artistry of someone who is setting the pace and creating new standards for those who follow and dare to call themselves ‘jazz singers.”
RAPPORT says - “Suzanne Pittson is an icon in a world of vocal divas. Setting Pittson apart from the others is her sheer dedication to heart and soul through technical accuracy and an uncanny creative ability to find notes where there are none."
ALL ABOUT JAZZ says "More than just a singer, but a jazz musician. With a fluid phrasing and stunning tone, she uses her voice as another instrument, improvising and playing with the melodies."
JAZZ INSIDE NEW YORK says "Some controversy exists over just what makes a jazz vocalist. Listen to Suzanne Pittson and you'll know."
The L.A. JAZZ SCENE calls her "a superior scat singer."
