Kurt Elling November 16, 2011

Sponsored by Kranson Industries

Once you hear Kurt Elling, you never forget the exciting sound of his four-octave voice or the daring diversity of a repertoire that includes jazz, pop, progressive rock, R&B, and original art music. His 2010 tribute to the classic recordings of John Coltrane and Johnny Hartman won a Grammy for Best Jazz Vocal Album, and he has been nominated for the Jazz Journalists Association 2011 Male Singer of the Year award, an honor he has won six times since 2000. No wonder the New York Times has described him as “the standout male vocalist of our time,” both a musician’s musician and an audience favorite wherever he performs.

“No matter what the room, chances are Kurt Elling would be the coolest one in it.” – Los Angeles Times

Two sets starting at 7:30 and 9:30 nightly.
