JANIS MANN AND BILL CUNLIFFE
"A first class jazz singer!" Scott Yanow, jazz critic and author, proclaims. At once both a striking song stylist and a fearless improviser, Janis Mann is that rare artist who can sweep you away with her captivating sound. She is a true jazz singer in the manner of Carmen McRae, Betty Carter, and Shirley Horn, yet with a sound all her own. An exciting and engaging performer, Janis' rich timbre, flexibility, and range often invite comparisons to Sarah Vaughan. "Janis has great stage presence, a flexible and powerful voice, and great arrangements. The way she weighs and colors the lyrics in her singing place her in rare company." These words by veteran radio host Jim Wilke confirm what fans of this award-winning singer have known for years. Some of the jazz luminaries she has sung or recorded with include: Roy Haynes, Diane Schuur, Jack Sheldon, John Clayton, Roy McCurdy, Tamir Hendelman, Peter Erskine, Joe LaBarbera, Jeff Clayton, Paul Kreibich, Chuck Berghofer, Jon Mayer, Ross Tompkins, John Heard, Dave Frishberg and Don Lanphere, earning their praises.
