Tierney Sutton: Blue in Green
by Roger Crane
It has been a pleasure to watch Tierney Sutton grow as a singer. When I first reviewed her performance for Marge Hofacre's Jazz News back in 1995 (in Three on a Swing ), I stated that “Tierney has no recordings as yet but she will." Given her talent, it was easy to make such a brash ...
Tierney Sutton: Blue In Green
by AAJ Staff
A glance at the listing of tunes on Tierney Sutton's Blue In Green intrigued me because somehow it consists of some of my favorites: “Autumn Leaves," “Detour Ahead," “Someday My Prince Will Come," “Never Let Me Go," and of course “Waltz For Debby" and “Blue In Green." The common element binding all of the tunes together ...

by C. Michael Bailey
Vocalese. The mellow personalities of the guitar flugelhorn, and trombone, coupled wish the breathy piping of an alto/soprano voice combine to make Unsung Heroes a very cool proposition.

Tierney Sutton: Unsung Heroes
by Mark Corroto
Miles Davis never shouted. I’m not talking about his damaged vocal chords. He rarely raised his musical voice above a whisper. Singer Tierney Sutton, like Miles, doesn’t raise her voice to make a resounding statement. Unlike so many upper range vocal gymnasts working today, Sutton favors articulation and quiet beauty as her approach. Funny so did ...
Tierney Sutton: Unsung Heroes
by AAJ Staff
While jazz enthusiasts mourn the loss of many of the members of the first generation of female jazz vocalists, their enthuasiasm doesn't seem to extend to many of the vocalists struggling, and in some cases, succeeding on today's scene. Dee Dee Bridgewater, Dominique Eade, Dianne Reeves, Vanessa Rubin, Karrin Allyson, and Nnennon Freelon, among others, come ...
Tierney Sutton: Introducing Tierney Sutton
by Jack Bowers
Like many other talented jazz singers, Tierney Sutton loves to crank up the tempo and let 'er rip. Well and good. The problem is, she is far more engaging and persuasive when she's interpreting ballads, and it is the half-dozen ballads--"You're Nearer," “It Never Entered My Mind," “Morning Sun," “High Wire," “I'm a Fool to Want ...
