Veronica Swift is not only one of the most dazzling singers to emerge in her generation, she’s one of the most versatile.

Her first two albums solidified her position in modern jazz, ascending to the upper echelon of early 21st century jazz singers because of her virtuosic brilliance, interpretive ingenuity, bracing songwriting, and keen arrangements.

In her self-titled 2023 album, Veronica Swift shows that she’s more than a jazz singer, exploring French and Italian opera, European classical music, bossa nova, blues, industrial rock, funk, and vaudeville.

Swift describes this personal artistic statement as “transgenre.” “As rooted in jazz as I’ve been, there’s a uniquely visceral power in rock and soul music that’s always fueled my creative passion.”

Swift first gained major international attention in 2015 when she won second place in the Thelonious Monk Institute of Jazz International Vocals Competition. Four years later, Mack Avenue Records released her acclaimed album Confessions when she was only 25 years old. Swift has continued to earn recognition and accolades ever since.
