Award-Winning Saxophonist Grace Kelly and Band at the Kate

OLD SAYBROOK, CT - The Katharine Hepburn Cultural Arts Center, “the Kate”, is pleased to welcome back Grace Kelly and Band on Friday, October 4, 2019 at 8:00 pm.

Featured in the 2017 Emmy-winning Yamaha production “The Right Note”, singer, saxophonist, and songwriter/composer Grace Kelly plays with the heart and passion of an old soul yet with the genre-bending zest and energy of a 27-year-old. The 2018 John Lennon Songwriting Contest Grand Prize winner has appeared regularly in the house band for The Late Show with Stephen Colbert under Jon Batiste and was highlighted on screen as a jazz soloist in the Emmy-nominated Amazon series BOSCH (S2E).

Vanity Fair included Kelly as a millennial shaking up the jazz world and she is picking up steam by rewriting the rules of the performance experience. Her recent project, “GO TiME: Brooklyn,” brought a fully live, choreographed, electrifying show to the Systems 2 recording studio in New York City in front of a spellbound in-person audience and to thousands more globally over a Facebook Live broadcast. Fans have responded in droves, with over 100,000 views on the video and thousands of positive comments and shares, further establishing her brand as an artistic veteran with a digital native’s flair for innovation.
