Kurt Elling is a two-time GRAMMY® Award-winner renowned for his signature sound and his inventive and individualized body of work-in-progress. With his one-of-a-kind brand of contemporary beat lyricism, vocalese brilliance and a rich variety of collaborations with fellow artists, the Chicago-based musician has extended the parameters of vocal jazz and enlarged its vocabulary. The New York Times rightly called Kurt Elling “the standout male jazz vocalist of our time.”
One of the finest pianists of his generation, having recorded thirteen albums as a leader, Joey Calderazzo has traveled the road from child prodigy to in-demand session musician to elite member of the finest ensembles in jazz. He's accompanied the music's geniuses, from Michael Brecker and Branford Marsalis to Jack DeJohnette and Dave Holland. Throughout his journey, Calderazzo has boldly explored his own psyche and his place in the world, as a composer, improviser, band member, and leader.
