Green is one of NYC’s most exciting new artists “well worth discovering” (NYC Jazz Record)!
A true “triple threat”, Kelly Green mesmerizes audiences as a pianist, vocalist, and composer. Kelly’s remarkable talent has led her to share the stage with jazz legends such as Christian McBride, George Coleman, Billy Hart and many others showcasing her exceptional skill, empathy, and musicality. She has brought her compelling talent and personality to prestigious venues including The Kennedy Center, Dizzy’s Jazz Club, Birdland, and Blue Note and has toured with her band all over the US, Europe, and South America.
Miss Green will be joined by her renowned band of world class musicians Evan Hyde on drums and Luca Soul Rosenfeld on the upright bass. Kelly Green is known for her intricate lyric driven arrangements of Jazz standards and her auspicious “outside-the-box” original compositions. With her quartet, she will be performing selections from their classic repertoire, music from their latest album ‘Seems’ and music from their upcoming album ‘Corner of My Dreams’. Esteemed writer and radio DJ Thierry De Clemensat describes their new album ‘Seems’ as “…an album of incredible class with musicians you’ll instantly adore.”
“Kelly Green is one of the most talented & spirited people I know. Everything about her is joyous and swingin’!” -Christian McBride
“She is no mere songwriter, but an artist and performer in toto…Green’s composing skills are more than impressive.” -Michael Bailey (All About Jazz)
Steinway Artist Kelly Green continues to leave an indelible mark on the jazz world, enchanting listeners with every note!
This is a show you will absolutely not want to miss!
