NYC Vocalist Lizzie Thomas has made a name for herself as a swinging, sultry singer with a beautiful stage presence. Her phrasing is effortless and naturally swings. She captivates her audience by going straight to the heart of the lyric.
Recently signed with Dot Time Records, Lizzie will release her 5th album, DUO Encounters in the Fall. The album features 12 exciting musicians on the NYC scene joining Lizzie in the duo setting. Lizzie creates side by side with Grammy Award winning instrumentalists Ron Carter, Russell Malone, John Di Martino, Guillerme Monteiro, Rossano Sportiello, Dezron Douglas, Wayne Escoffery, Noriko Ueda, Ron Affif, Cafe and Mairi Dorham-Phaneuf.
Ms Thomas came to jazz when she realized that it is a purely American art form: It’s steeped in tradition and allows for endless innovation. “I can call a tune for the rest of my life, and I will never sing it the same way. That’s freedom,” she says, “that’s provocative - that’s jazz.”
