Get Your Tickets at CatalinaJazzClub.com or TicketWeb.comABOUT THE ARTIST:She has a miraculous voice, musical ability and technique, as well as an innate gift for entertaining a crowd. Wall Street Journal Veronica Swift is a Mack Avenue recording artist whose debut album Confessions was released in 2019. Her second release, This Bitter Earth (2021), earned her a five-star review in DownBeat magazine including the front cover on their November 2021 issue, the JazzTimes December cover, and Lacademie du Jazz Best Vocal Album award in 2021. Having made her mark on the international jazz scene as one of the star vocalists of her era, Veronica Swift has now expanded her style, establishing herself as a skilled rock and soul singer as well as a dynamic performer. Her third album TransGenre (2023) will venture into mixing jazz and classical with rock, soul, and funk paying homage to greats like Janis Joplin, David Bowie, Jimi Hendrix and Duke Ellington. Veronicas ability to transcend different styles, and fully embody them with authenticity to tell a story makes her one of the most skillful singers in any genre, and displays her theatrical approach as a performer and artist. Raised in Charlottesville, VA and having grown up on the road with her parents (jazz pianist Hod OBrien and vocalist Stephanie Nakasian), Veronica began her performing and recording career at age nine. As a child, she headlined at Jazz at Lincoln Centers Dizzys Club, and appeared at major US festivals such as the Telluride Jazz Fest. She went on to receive a Bachelor of Music Degree from University of Miamis Frost School of Music.Placing 2nd in the 2015 Thelonious Monk Jazz Competition put Veronica on the map, contributing to her landing a weekly residency at the historic jazz venue Birdland. It was there where she captured the attention of jazz icons Chris Botti and Wynton Marsalis who featured her on their tours throughout the following years as Veronica also toured extensively with her own band. Its as good a job of reconciling the past and the present as I have ever heard, and goes a lot further than anything else Ive encountered in the past 12 months toward making sense out of a world gone wacko. Wall Street Journal...it takes an artist of sure and rising stature to curate one hell of a coherent protest album. All About Jazz
