Renowned for his singular combination of robust swing and poetic insight, two-time Grammy winner Kurt Elling has secured his place among the world’s foremost jazz vocalists. Over a 25-year touring and recording career, Elling has won three Prix du Jazz, two German Echo Awards, and two Dutch Edison Awards and has received 16 Grammy nominations. He had a 14-year run atop the DownBeat Critics and Readers polls and won 12 Jazz Journalists Awards for Male Vocalist of the Year.

One of the finest pianists of his generation, having recorded 13 albums as a bandleader, Joey Calderazzo has progressed from child prodigy to in-demand session musician to elite member of the finest ensembles in jazz. He has accompanied some of the geniuses of the genre, including Michael Brecker, Branford Marsalis, Jack DeJohnette, and Dave Holland. As a composer, improvisor, band member, and bandleader, Calderazzo’s work reflects bold self-exploration.
