Kellye Gray Jazztet

Jazz singer, Kellye Gray, presents an evening of new and old music culled from recordings and shows over her 25 year career. "Simply the most exciting singer to debut" said USA Today. Don't miss your chance to hear this award winning singer. Joining Kellye onstage are Marcus Shelby, Adam Shulman and Greg Wyser-Pratt.

With her renowned, brilliant use of voice as instrument, jazz singer Kellye Gray has entertained dignitaries and heads-of-state, and shared stages with an impressive constellation of international jazz, blues and R&B stars in a career spanning 25 years. The San Francisco Examiner called her "a musically most imaginative tour de force." Described as "stunning scat singing, instrumental simulations and dark-toned balladry" by the Los Angeles Times, Gray creatively uses her voice as part of the ensemble. JazzTimes magazine calls her " an impressive, indeed frighteningly vast talent."

Her career has led her to performances in major venues such as the Lincoln Center, Yoshi's, Cinegrille in Hollywood's famous Roosevelt Hotel, New Orleans's oldest jazz room Snug Harbor and in the jazz caves of Paris at Les Caveaux de la Rochette. Now, you can see her in Oakland's best venue, The Sound Room. Join her for an amazing evening.
