Eugenie Jones
Born:
Eugenie Jones is an acclaimed American jazz singer-songwriter and producer known for a magnetic stage presence and a voice that Paris Move magazine hails as "one of the most beautiful in the United States." Credited with a talent that "elevates everything she touches," Jones has carved a unique path in the industry, beginning her professional vocal career only after earning an MBA and working in nonprofit marketing.
While Seeking solace following the 2008 death of her mother, Jones entered the Seattle jazz scene to carry on a part of her mother. Since then, she has released six celebrated albums, including her latest, EUGENIE, which charted on the Jazz Week Top 50 for 25 weeks and peaked at #4. A two-time winner of the Earshot Jazz Vocalist of the Year award, she made history when Black Lace Blue Tears became the first vocal release to win Earshot’s Recording of the Year.
Beyond the stage, Jones is a Seattle Jazz Hall of Fame inductee and a recipient of the Jazz Journalists Association’s Jazz Hero award recipient. She is the founder of the nonprofit Music for a Cause and as served as executive producer of the annual Jackson St Jazz Walk since 2017. With songwriting skills favorably compared to those of Abbey Lincoln and Nina Simone and with over 30 original compositions to her credit, she has recorded with legends such as Reggie Workman, Julian Priester, Bobby Sanabria, Bernard Purdie, and Lonnie Plaxico, consistently delivering what critics call "beautifully grown up and real" jazz.
Previous performances have included Dazzle Jazz Club/Denver, the Atlanta Jazz Festival, the San Jose Jazz Festival, the Jazz Forum/NY, Earshot Jazz Festival/Seattle, Scat Jazz Lounge/Ft. Worth, Pangea Supper Club/ NY, The Blue Llama/Ann Arbor, The Velvet Note/ATL, Minton’s Playhouse/NY, National Jazz Museum in Harlem, Mr. Tipple’s/San Francisco, and many others.
