Jackie Ryan

Jackie teamed with GRAMMY Award winner John Clayton to deliver her chart-
topping CD "Listen Here" - a tour de force through a myriad of jazz idioms — from
blues and gospel flavored jazz gems, to luscious love songs, a soaring Spanish
ballad, a Gershwin classic, pulsating samba rhythms, an original with lyrics penned
by GRAMMY/Oscar/Emmy Award winners — all culminating with the title track: a
stunning duet with 3-time GRAMMY nominee Gerald Clayton.
"Those who hear her are the fortunate ones," writes Howard Mandel - president, Jazz
Journalists Association; "An astonishing contralto voice," (DOWNBEAT), thrilling
audiences across the globe with her powerful 3 & 1/2 octave range and her magnetic
stage presence - and amassing, along the way, an impressive array of records (three
back-to-back #1 CDs on JazzWeek's nationwide chart) and glowing reviews.
Her previous outing - a double CD, "DOOZY" - featured Cyrus Chestnut, Eric
Alexander, Jeremy Pelt, Carl Allen, Ray Drummond and Romero Lubambo, garnered
universal praise (4-Stars from both DOWNBEAT and AMG), and held the #1 position
nationwide on JazzWeek's industry-standard chart for a record-breaking 7 solid
