Kim Nalley - Jazz & Blues Vocals
Kim Nalley topped the success of her 2003 CD, Need My Sugar, with this year's astounding She Put a Spell on Me, her powerful, heartfelt and hugely entertaining tribute to the great Nina Simone. SFStation gave the CD 4 stars, saying, "Nalley shows off her soaring, sultry vocals as she powers through an appropriately eclectic set of jazz, blues, showtunes and folk . . . . Invariably, her bold voice and impressive range will inspire comparisons to the likes of Dinah Washington and Ella Fitzgerald, but it's a tribute to Nalley that she distinguishes herself as a unique talent. . . ."
No secret to the music world at large, Kim Nalley has performed at most of the major Jazz festivals throughout the world, garnering rave reviews along the way, and performed with heavyweights from James Williams, Jimmy McGriff and Billy Higgins to Michael Tilson Thomas and the San Francisco Symphony.
Nalley combines a lithe, beautiful sound and compelling sense of swing with just enough old-school razzle dazzle to create an instant and genuine rapport with her audience. Expect a swinging evening of standards in the tradition of Billie Holiday, Joe Williams, Ella Fitzgerald and, yes, Nina Simone, from a wonderful songstress and a great entertainer.
Nalley's dates are as popular with Bay Area jazz musicians as they are with jazz audiences at large, so you never know what San Francisco jazz star will be joining her on stage.
