About
Heavily steeped in the traditions of the original vocal improvisers from Louis Armstrong and Ella Fitzgerald, Giacomo's own approach draws most heavily from the bebop-rooted masters like Jon Hendricks, Babs Gonzales, King Pleasure and most of all, Eddie Jefferson. Gates has performed at major clubs and concert venues all over the country, released eight acclaimed CDs, and teaches regularly at Wesleyan University, the Hartford Conservatory of Music and New Haven's Neighborhood Music School.
