3x Grammy Nominee Kate McGarry makes a rare West Coast appearance with her longtime musical and life partner Keith Ganz, leading an all-star rhythm section featuring NYC drum icon and recent LA transplant Clarence Penn. Known for their sparkling reinventions of both jazz and iconic singer-songwriter repertoire, Downbeat calls their latest album "a radical and lustrous weave of original music and cover tunes."
"By turns sensual, playful and self-examining, McGarry embraces jazz's freedom yet points the genre toward a future as fresh and thrilling as its past. She wields a crystalline tone with remarkable range and control, musically connecting Miles Davis and Bill Evans with Joni Mitchell and Bjork. Her song choices are eclectic and revealing, yet she connects strongest on her original tunes, which burst with insight and desire.” - Nashville Scene
