About
Award-winning vocalist and L.A. favorite, Janis Mann returns to the Santa Barbara Jazz Society series at SOhO on Sunday, May 7 from 1 to 4pm with a trio of renowned musicians: Jeff Colella on piano, Ken Wild on bass, and Dick Weller on drums. This exceptional band wows audiences with a broad repertoire of soul-stirring ballads, hard swinging modern jazz, sensuous latin tunes, and spirited blues, all presented with Janis's own deft improvisational twist. Janis’s latest recording with pianist Kenny Werner, released in 2021, was a Downbeat Magazine Editors Pick and received much critical acclaim and recognition. She has performed with Diane Schuur, Roy Haynes, Laurence Hobgood, Terrell Stafford, Dave Frishberg, Jack Sheldon, John Clayton, Eric Reed, the Caribbean Jazz Project, Roberta Gambarini, and many other jazz celebrities in addition to her own legendary shows. Her music appears in films and her recordings are a radio and streaming mainstay. JazzTimes Magazine says, “Mann is not only one of the most skilled vocalists around, but one of the most alluring as well.” You won’t want to miss this one!...
