SAMARA JOY
Special Event


Fri, Oct 20, 8:00 pm  


The GRAMMY-Award winning 23-year-old, Samara Joy, returns to the Jorgensen stage this fall. Her chart-topping new album Linger Awhile, only builds the case for her to join the likes of Sarah, Ella, and Billie as the next mononymous jazz singing sensation recorded by the venerable Verve Records. The New York Times praised the “silky-voiced rising star” for “helping jazz take a youthful turn,” while NPR All Things Considered named her a “classic jazz singer from a new generation.” In February, she took home two GRAMMYs – Best Jazz Vocal Album and the auspicious Best New Artist award – cementing her status as perhaps the first Gen Z jazz singing star. Don’t miss this legend in the making.
