Join us for the launch of the 2024 Suite Sessions season at the InterContinental Barclay, with the celebrated duo of Kristen Lee Sergeant and Jeb Patton.

Based in New York City, Kristen Lee Sergeant was praised for “moments of engaging drama, whether she’s seductively sliding into a note with a near-whisper, delivering a breathy revelation or belting out a lyric with full-throated muscularity”. That variety of musical color derives from Sergeant’s rich tapestry of influences that stretch far across artists (Dianne Reeves, Judy Garland, Joni Mitchell and Fiona Apple) and art forms (jazz, theater, opera and 1970s pop). At the InterContinental Barclay Sergeant will be performing with her long time collaborator, pianist Jeb Patton, a musician who has been described as both a “young phenom…on piano” and an “absolute great” and has earned a well-regarded reputation in the international jazz community. The multi-talented Patton is known as a “player of great expression” and “not one to tread the predictable,” as well as a “simpatico accompanist” for The Heath Brothers, an “innovative” arranger, and one who “cuts…[an] impressive swath on his composition, ‘Hanna’s Mood,'” a tribute to his late teacher, Sir Roland Hanna.
