About this Event
Linda Solotaire is a vocal artist, band leader, curator, and teaching artist. She is currently working on a collection of songs by Thelonius Monk with her collaborator/arranger Stu Greenspan. Their first project Dreams of You: the Sun, the Moon, and Johnny Mercer, embracing the dreamy world of one of America’s finest lyricists was met with critical acclaim. Her other band Songs of Love & Hate, features re-imaginings of songs by Leonard Cohen, Joni Mitchell, Dylan, the Velvet Underground and others. Performances may be infused with originals, spoken word and projection. Songs of Love & Hate is a joyous collaboration with Chris Bernhardt on bass & vocals, Fred Simon on keys, Dave Onderdonk on guitars, Mike Levin on reeds and various percussionists. She enjoys remounting her Speakeasy Show (featuring music of the 1910’s & 20’s) as well as her straight ahead jazz ensemble, the Linda Solotaire Quintet.
