Vanessa Collier at Jazz Club Étoile

"A young woman [Vanessa Collier] came on stage with me, I forgot where I was, but she was playing alto sax, and she was incredible."  These are the words of Buddy Guy in an issue of American Blues Scene, describing an impromptu performance with Vanessa Collier on the Legendary Rhythm & Blues Cruise. Four-time Blues Music Award winner for "Horn Player of the Year" (2019, 2020, 2024) and "Contemporary Blues Female Artist of the Year" (2022), and nominated in 2024 for B.B. King Entertainer of the Year, Vanessa Collier is a force to be reckoned with. She offers a powerful stage presence, funky, uncompromising saxophone growls, soul-stirring vocals and witty, energetic compositions. Her latest album, "Do It My Own Way", released in September 2024, is a throwback to old-school soul, R&B and blues, as well as to the days of great songs and singer-songwriters. Join her for her Paris debut at Jazz Étoile on March 27!...

« Une jeune femme [Vanessa Collier] est montée sur scène avec moi, j'ai oublié où j'étais, mais elle jouait du saxophone alto, et elle était incroyable.»  Tels sont les mots de Buddy Guy dans un numéro d'American Blues Scene, pour décrire une performance impromptue avec Vanessa Collier sur la Legendary Rhythm & Blues Cruise. Quatre fois lauréate du Blues Music Award pour le « Horn Player of the Year » (2019, 2020, 2024) et « Contemporary Blues Female Artist of the Year » (2022), et nominée en 2024 pour le titre de B.B. King Entertainer of the Year, Vanessa Collier est une force avec laquelle il faut compter. Elle offre une présence scénique puissante, des saxophones grogneurs funky et sans concession, des voix qui font vibrer l'âme, ainsi que des compositions pleines d'esprit et d'énergie. Son dernier album, « Do It My Own Way », sorti en septembre 2024, est un retour à la vieille école de la soul, du R&B et du blues, ainsi qu'à l'époque des grandes chansons et des auteurs-compositeurs. Retrouvez-la pour ses débuts à Paris au Jazz Étoile le 27 mars !
