Tammy McCann: Merry Christmas, Baby!
“I haven’t heard a voice like [Tammy’s] in decades…She is the voice of our time.”
- Stanley Crouch, Cultural & Jazz Critic
Chicago treasure, singer, and entrancing band leader Tammy McCann makes her Keystone Korner debut to share new stories and interpret holiday favorites, delivering a hard-swinging set for every listener. Named the Chicago Tribune’s 2020 Person of the Year in Jazz, Tammy McCann is an internationally recognized jazz vocalist and is currently Artist in Residence for the Music Institute of Chicago. Her powerful, sultry, and emotionally charged voice paints pictures and tells stories by merging classical vocal technique and gospel esthetic with jazz to create a sound that is completely her own.
McCann has performed with such luminaries as Ramsey Lewis and NEA Jazz Master Von Freeman, John Clayton, Branford Marsalis, Joe Locke, Charles McPherson, Dee Dee Bridgewater, and Carmen Bradford, and has also toured as a ‘Raelette’ with the great Ray Charles. McCann has thrilled audiences in festivals and clubs world-wide from Bangkok, Thailand to the Harrods Atticus in Greece.
