THE LEGENDARY LADIES OF JAZZ ~ ELLA, SARAH DINAH & BILLIE. At the end of the 1940’s four unique women appeared on the scene whose unique styles of delivery and mastery of improvisation not only changed the direction of jazz, but changed popular music itself. Join Tammy McCann as she celebrates Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughan, Dinah Washington, and Billie Holiday.
Tammy McCann is an internationally recognized Jazz Vocalist and is currently Artist in Residence for the Music Institute of Chicago. Her powerful, sultry, and emotionally charged voice merges Classical vocal technique and Gospel esthetic with Jazz to create a sound that is completely her own. Chicago Tribune’s Arts Critic, Howard Reich says McCann has, “A voice that soars in all registers, at all tempos, on all occasions… a voice that inspires wonder!” Tammy has performed with such luminaries as Ramsey Lewis, Von Freeman, John Clayton, Branford Marsalis, Joe Locke, Charles McPherson, Dee Dee Bridgewater, Carmen Bradford, and toured as a ‘Raelette’ with the great Ray Charles.
