Luxury Events Presents Wenso Ashby Live at the Penumbra Theater
Wenso Ashby is a jazz pianist that showcases musical craftsmanship with its own set of charms. He will take you on an instrumental cruise or a vocal flight and can travel in any direction the mood takes him. Drawing on impeccable technique, a picture-perfect smile, and considerable instrumental prowess, Ashby gives his audience what they want and a bit more.
He reveres the versatile aspects of style, cadence and rhythms while remaining within his smooth jazz roots. Perhaps the best way to appreciate what Wenso Ashby does is to hear him in a solo context. His agility, grace, compositional prowess, unbridled passion, fearless genre bending and superior musicianship, have made him a unique musical individual in many respects.
Complimenting his keyboard stylings are the vocals of Zsamé Morgan. Her voice blurs the lines that separate contemporary jazz from neosoul, while extending the boundaries of both. The vocals are sensual and sultry, colored by improvisational piano, slick guitar, and simmering percussions. The end result is glorious music that is as sophisticated as it is emotionally honest.
