Since her debut in 2019, Veronica Swift has ascended to the upper echelons of 21st-century jazz singers because of her virtuosic brilliance, interpretive ingenuity, bracing songwriting, and keen arrangements. Swift is one of the most dazzling and versatile singers to emerge in her generation.

While her first two albums solidified her position in modern jazz, Veronica Swift’s latest material shows that she’s more than a jazz singer, exploring French and Italian opera, European classical music, bossa nova, blues, rock, funk, and vaudeville. She pulls all of it off with her artistic voice remaining firmly intact, regardless of genre.

Her “transgenre” concept includes gutsy treatments from as diverse a range as Duke Ellington, opera, Broadway musicals to Nine Inch Nails and Queen.

Expect an energetic, unforgettable declaration of artistic freedom from a uniquely talented voice.
