Robin McKelle
vocalsAbout
From country music to rhythm and blues, Robin McKelle has had a career of discovering the richness of American music. With the album Impressions of Ella, McKelle returns to his traditional jazz roots, a genre in which he is truly at home.
Introducing Robin McKelle, his 2006 debut album, offers a dozen lifelong standards from the swing era ("Come Rain or Come Shine," "Night and Day," "On the Sunny Side of the Street"). For his latest project, McKelle draws from a single source and perhaps his greatest artistic influence, Ella Fitzgerald.
