Kate Hammett-Vaughan Trio

One of Canada’s most distinctive jazz artists, Vancouver-based Hammett-Vaughan is adventurous and assured, and her hip vocals have earned her three Juno nominations. The Toronto Star hails her as “a marvelous storyteller...with the knack of making everything she attempts sound newly minted,” while CODA magazine calls her simply “the finest jazz standards singer in Canada.” Through soul-searching ballads, swinging standards, and freewheeling sonic explorations, Hammett-Vaughan is supported and challenged at every turn by her remarkable band. With Chris Gestrin piano, André Lachance bass, Tom Foster drums, Jon Bentley saxophones.
