Michelle Walker Live at Bar Next Door Sept. 10

MONDAY September 10, 2007

New York, NY - Critically acclaimed jazz vocalist, Michelle Walker, will perform in concert at the intimate stage of The BAR NEXT DOOR in its widely respected jazz lounge on Monday September 10, 2007. She will perform sets throughout the night starting promptly at 8:00pm. Michelle has spent the past few years amassing an impressive musical resume of concert and festival performances, including The Lincoln Center-Women in Jazz Festival, The Silver Spring Jazz Festival, Goshen Jazz Festival and The Rehoboth Beach Jazz Festival. This fall, she will be traveling to Israel for an 8-day tour for the “Hot Jazz" Concert Series co-sponsored by the Tel Aviv Museum of Art.

Michelle is often compared to Cassandra Wilson, Nina Simone and Betty Carter in style and tone. She has opened in concert for Wynton Marsalis, Rene Marie, Terrell Stafford, Chris Botti, George Benson and Mark Murphy. Her arrangements of straight-ahead standards and contemporary pop tunes blend genres effortlessly and with an undeniable level of originality that is solidifying her own distinctive sound. Dave Nathan at All About Jazz says, “Walker sings with an extraordinary degree of musicality."
