About this Event
Chelsea Reed is a jazz vocalist, arranger, composer, bandleader, and educator living in Philadelphia. With a penchant for 20th-century swing and blues music, Reed founded Chelsea Reed and the Fair Weather Band in October 2012. They have gone on to record five albums and tour the world, playing for swing and blues dancers and sharing the stage with Wycliffe Gordon, Terell Stafford, and Dick Oatts. Their most recent album, Carolina Lullaby (2020), showcases original songs steeped in jazz, blues, and folk traditions where Reed’s soaring vocals and swing musicality shine.
Beyond the Fair Weather Band, Reed explores the many nuances of the jazz genre in duo, trio, quartet, and big band form. She is the featured vocalist with two Philadelphia area jazz ensembles, the Jack Saint Clair Orchestra and Josh Lee and the Extended Family.
She currently teaches Jazz History and Performance at Temple University's Boyer College of Music.
