SUMMARY:8-Time GRAMMY Nominated Jazz Vocalist Tierney Sutton & Trumpeter/Vocalist Joe Gransden with The Eric Jones Trio
DESCRIPTION:8-time Grammy-nominated jazz vocalist Tierney Sutton has received a “Best Jazz Vocal Album” Grammy nod for every project she has released in the last decade. Known for her impeccable voice and imaginative treatments of The Great American Songbook\, Sutton is heralded for her abilities as both a jazz storyteller and her ability to use her voice as an instrument. Her 12 recordings as leader have addressed themes such as materialism (“Desire” 2009)\, the pursuit of happiness (“On The Other Side” 2007)\, as well as paying tribute to the music of Bill Evans (“Blue In Green” 2002)\, Frank Sinatra (“Dancing In The Dark” 2004)\, and pop icon Sting (“The Sting Variations” 2016). Her 2013 Joni Mitchell tribute\, “After Blue” featured keyboardist Larry Goldings\, drummer Peter Erskine\, jazz vocal legend Al Jarreau\, and NEA Jazz Master flautist Hubert Laws. In May 2016 Tierney was approached by legendary Director Clint Eastwood. The original score to his box-office smash\, “Sully”\, was created by Tierney Sutton Band pianist\, Christian Jacob\, The Tierney Sutton Band and Clint Eastwood. The end-title song “Flying Home” features music by Eastwood and lyrics by Tierney Sutton and JB Eckl. It is performed by Tierney Sutton and The Tierney Sutton Band. When she is not performing\, Tierney is in demand as both a studio vocal producer and vocal educator. In 2016 she worked with famed lyric soprano Natalie Dessay for Sony Classics’ “Pictures of America” and the soon to be released “Between Yesterday and Tomorrow”. Tierney taught for over a decade at USC’s Thornton School of Music and spent 6 years as the Vocal Department Head at The Los Angeles College of Music in Pasadena\, CA. She has also taught and mentored some of the finest new generation of singers including Gretchen Parlato and Sara Gazarek.   Joe Gransden – Trumpeter/Vocalist Joe is a young man with an old soul and a classic voice.  He is a great new talent with a wonderful since of humor to boot.  And don’t forget\, he plays a hell of a trumpet! – Clint Eastwood\, Actor/Director Joe Gransden has performed worldwide and released 14 CDs under his own name. Renowned first for the hard bop approach of his trumpet\, Gransden’s singing voice has been compared to that of Chet Baker and Frank Sinatra.  “When I first heard Joe nine years ago\, I immediately thought of Chet\,” says Jazziz magazine critic James Rozzi\, “but lately his voice has taken on its own style with a deeper resonance. His trumpet has always alternated lyricism with an aggressive\, angular approach. He has the ability to cover the gamut of emotions.”  Joe is from just north of Manhattan\, New York. Coming from a family full of musicians\, Joe’s introduction to music came early on through his father\, a gifted singer and pianist.  His grandfather was a trumpeter of merit\, playing professionally his whole life throughout New York. On his mother’s side of the family was the piano virtuoso Carmen Cavallero. “Music has been a part of my life as far back as I can remember\,” says the unassuming Joe Gransden. “I can remember practicing with my father\, and eventually him taking me along to sit in at jam sessions. Early on I developed a respect for individuals like my father whose lives revolved around music. While still in high school\, I knew that music was the life I would choose.” Not long after high school\, Joe was on the road as a sideman with the big bands of Tommy Dorsey and Glenn Miller. A number of A.F.M. contracted sideman gigs include Barry White\, The Moody Blues\, Kenny Rogers\, The Temptations\, Aretha Franklin\, The Whispers\, etc. Eventually moving to New York City\, he performed with numerous groups\, including sub work with Toshiko Akiyoshi and Chico O’Farrill at the famous Birdland Jazz Club. Meanwhile\, Joe formed his own group\, which performed in Brooklyn each week and included the venerable guitarist Joe Cohn and ex-Betty Carter bassist\, Matt Hughes. “Having my own group and being fortunate enough to travel\, play\, and record has been a dream come true\,” says Joe. “Exploring the music with a steady group of great players has enabled me to continually grow.” Joe Gransden growing legion of fans around the country have obviously taken note. In Atlanta\, where Joe plays steadily 5-6 nights a week in as many venues\, his loyal following includes an array of people from blue-collar workers to upper crust businessmen and businesswomen who all share a love of good music.  Like many developing jazzmen\, Gransden’s early influences\, which include Kenny Dorham and Miles Davis\, were easily recognizable in his playing throughout his formative years. “Emulating the jazz greats is always the very first step\,” says the historically-rooted Gransden. “But obviously\, in order to be true to myself—who I am\, what I believe in\, my family background—I need to have a sound that’s my own. It’s taken me until recently to hone in on that voice and explore its potential. One of the truly enjoyable things about my career has been finding that my audience appreciates my individual talents.” A widening schedule has found Joe performing the 1st and 3rd Mondays of every month at Café 290 in Atlanta w/his 16 Piece Big Band \, The Blue Note in New York City\, The Jazz Corner in Hilton Head SC\, The Ritz-Carlton at Reynolds Plantation W/Michael Fienstein\, The Museum of Art and Design in midtown Manhattan\, Spivey Hall in Atlanta\, Ga and Tehema Golf Club in Carmel\, California (where Joe plays occasional events for Clint Eastwood). Joe also released his cd “Close To My Heart” produced by Saxophone great Kenny G. The cd is a collection of smooth jazz covers and originals written by Joe and Kenny. His brand new project entitled “Songs of Sinatra & Friends” features Joe w/his 16 piece Big Band & Strings Celebrating the music of Frank Sinatra!  The CD and has been getting great reviews and lots of airplay around the country.           MUSIC CHARGE: $25REQUEST A RESERVATION
