| Connor Desai to Perform for Cafe Society at the Capitol Club Seattle singer/songwriter/guitarist Connor Desai, who according to the Jazz Music Examiner "has an extraordinary voice all her own, able to deftly flow over jazz-funk bass notes or American folk guitar strumming, " joins Cafe Society to play the Capitol Club on Thursday, September 16th at 8:00 PM. Before the show begins, Caitlin Scott Jewelery will host a trunk show. The brand is known for "handmade, one-of-a-kind sterling silver and gold-filled jewelry. With a funky, elegant twist." Café Society was created with the female musician in mind and has hosted Dice, Marissa, and Thee Satisfaction and co-hosted Choklate, Luxury A.K., Anomie Belle, and Lisa Dank among others. The Examiner noted recently that "in addition to featuring female musicians, the organization has also hosted female entrepreneurs who have a connection to the Puget Sound music scene." About Connor Desai Connor Desai makes soulful American folk music and names Victoria Williams, Steely Dan, and Kansas as her early influences. Her latest appearance at ToST in Seattle's Fremont neighborhood received a recommendation from Three Imaginary Girls, which asserted that her latest release is filled with "hollow-bodied warmth, tube amp glow, and dark lounge haunt drama." A national feature on Channel One News revealed that "[you] can play the entire record, her refreshing sounds provide a nice variety - whether they are upbeat and ranging near pop, or more slow and contemplative, " while Seattle Show Gal said "[she] is sure to melt your heart with her sultry, silky voice and fine-tuned jazzyness with a hint of bouncy pop." write your comments about the article :: © 2010 Jazz News :: home page |
