Duchess!
Sure-footed swing, sweet-toned harmony, and ever-insouciant charm are embodied in the new jazz vocal trio Duchess, featuring notable New York singers Amy Cervini, Hilary Gardner and Melissa Stylianou. In a remarkably short amount of time, Duchess has developed a major reputation as a leading vocal trio. Inspired by vocal groups like the Boswell Sisters and the Andrews Sisters, Duchess boasts tight vocal harmonies that are both technically challenging and easy on the ears. Rather than performing straight takes on the classics, however, their arrangements are uniquely tailored for their voices and 21st-century tastes. Duchess is also well known for their sense of humor and playfulness, so come ready to let loose and have a good time. Catch Duchess at the Jazz Forum on Friday, Dec. 15th and Saturday, Dec. 16th at 7&9 pm both nights!
