Angela Gray Quartet - Friday
In a genre often heavy and esoteric, Angela brings a radical simplicity to her storytelling. Raised from Manila to Manhattan, free-spirited and joyful, her soulful voice and warm timbre has been compared to the “Queen of the Blues”, Dinah Washington as well as shades of Amy Winehouse.The Filipino-American songwriter and jazz vocalist first cut her teeth in New York City after stepping foot in the notorious Smalls Jazz Club in the West Village at just 16 years old. She quickly developed a deep love for The Great American Songbook with heavy influences by legendary vocalists like Dinah Washington, Aretha Franklin, and Billie Holiday. Angela brings a fresh, radical simplicity to her storytelling—breathing new life into the jazz standards we all know and love.
