BIO A Jazz singer is truly a unique combination of talents - using the abilities to bend a melody, improvise on a harmony, and at the same time, keep a rhythmical sense that makes you want to pat your foot. One such singer is Wendy Simon, originally a member of the recorded group, "52nd Street." Their album on Inner City Records, "Scrapple To The Apple," earned them international recognition for their be-bop takes and advanced harmonic explorations. Wendy Simon has re-invented herself in the modern Jazz world, creating and investigating newer sounds in Jazz, while still paying homage to the Jazz classics of yesterday. She establishes a strong connection with the audience and has a diverse mix of material, including imaginative takes on Jazz standards, Brazilian bossas, and the Great American Songbook. Her adventurous, innovative and exciting approach is a sure crowd-pleaser!
