With vocalist Sofija Knezevic, trombonist Elliot Mason, pianist Dan Nimmer, bassist Carlos Henriquez, and drummer Obed Calvaire. “Recognized as one of jazz's pre-eminent vocalists, young Sofija Knezevic is making her name as one of the most significant singers in jazz today. While her singing is steeped in tradition, her improvisational virtuosity and creativity are breathtaking.” – The New York Times
Vocalist Sofija Knezevic takes to the Dizzy’s Club stage on International Jazz Day to celebrate the release of her debut album. She’ll be performing original compositions and jazz standards alongside several members of the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra: trombonist Elliot Mason, pianist Dan Nimmer, bassist Carlos Henriquez, and frequent JLCO drummer Obed Calvaire. Knezevic has made well-received appearances at the club as a guest vocalist, but this will be the first time audiences get to enjoy her leading an entire show. It’s hard to think of a better way to spend International Jazz Day than at a debut album release show!
