Karrin Allyson is a Grammy-nominated jazz vocalist on Concord Records. Allyson projects an instantly recognizable tonal personality, illuminating hidden layers of emotion within songs that are drawn from a vast well of styles and genres—from the blues, contemporary pop, and the Great American Songbook, to the bossa nova, chanson, and the more specialized jazz and bebop repertoire. What really separates Allyson from her peers is her ability to communicate oceanic emotions with minimal artifice.
