Catherine Russell
SOLD OUT!
GRAMMY®-nominated vocalist Catherine Russell, when asked to characterize her new album, Send For Me, replied, “I love romance that swings.” Released in 2022 on Dot Time Records, Send For Me features a dozen newly recorded tracks on her eighth full-length album that meets a simple demanding standard: “Songs that inspire or touch me in some way. When I find a song I like, it haunts me until I learn it.” Her mission is finding songs that you might not have heard but deserve your attention. Russell’s deep connection to her chosen material is part of a calling. As the daughter of pioneering and legendary musicians, pianist/orchestra leader/composer/arranger Luis Russell, and bassist/guitarist/vocalist Carline Ray, Catherine Russell was born into jazz royalty. In culling material for her new album—from the likes of Billie Holiday, Nat King Cole, Luis Russell, Betty Carter, Jack Teagarden, Frank Sinatra and Louis Armstrong—the vocalist swims in familiar waters. She sings a language that comes naturally, furthering a profound legacy.
Russell’s professional life began at age 7, when she first took the stage as a dancer with Katherine Dunham’s company for four seasons at The Metropolitan Opera’s production of Aida. After graduating with honors from the American Academy of Dramatic Arts, she was fortunate to work with David Bowie, Steely Dan, Cyndi Lauper, Paul Simon, Jackson Browne and Wynton Marsalis, to name but a few. Russell performed extensively as a backup singer, multi-instrumentalist, and lead singer, before launching her solo recording career in 2006. She amassed decades of experience touring and recording with cutting edge songwriters and iconic artists, appearing on over 200 albums. Don’t miss this opportunity to see a consummate jazz performer in her element.
