April Varner Quintet
Join us at Regattabar on September 20 for an evening with the April Varner Quintet!
Hailed by The New York City Jazz Record for her “masterful improvisational scat and the art of the vocalese,” and praised by DownBeat for her “impressive range,” vocalist April Varner brings a fresh voice to the jazz tradition.
A rising star on the international jazz scene, Varner blends bebop virtuosity, contemporary storytelling, and a deep love of improvisation.With performances at Jazz at Lincoln Center, Birdland, Blues Alley, and venues across the U.S. and Europe, as well as collaborations with artists including Kurt Elling, Jane Monheit, John Pizzarelli, and Emmet Cohen, Varner has quickly become one of today’s most exciting jazz vocalists.
Experience music from her acclaimed albums April and Ella in an intimate live setting as she reimagines the American Songbook with creativity, spontaneity, and unmistakable artistry.
