About Me
Multi Award Winning Jazz Singer from New York City
Don Heckman of the Los Angeles Times wrote: “The first thing that grabs you about Shaynee Rainbolt is her voice: a warm, rich, multi-hued sound that can range from the intimacy of a sensuous whisper in your ear to a sexy strut down Fifth Avenue. It's a voice that one can imagine caressing a ballad, or scatting briskly through the changes of “I Got Rhythm” backed by a bop-driven jazz quintet. And that's just for starters. She is, in other words, a singer for all seasons, underscoring her constant musical eclecticism with the subtleties of jazz-inflected phrasing and a sumptuous tone.” FOR MORE INFO - FULL SCHEDULE - MUSIC AND VIDEO: HTTP://WWW.SHAYNEERAINBOLT.COM _____________________________________ SHAYNEE RAINBOLT has performed at world-class NYC venues such as The Highline Ballroom, Jazz Standard, Iridium Jazz Club, The Metropolitan Room, The Hideaway Room, Danny's Skylight Room, Don't Tell Mama, Ashford and Simpson's Sugar Bar & The River Room of Harlem.
