Description
Deelee Dube is an award-winning vocalist, who made history by becoming the first British winner and recipient of the 2016 Sarah Vaughan International Jazz Vocal Competition, NJPAC (NJ, USA). Today, Deelee is regarded as one of the most gifted vocalists to have emerged from the London scene in many years and recently announced as the winner of 'Best International Jazz Collaboration' at the 2021Mzantsi Jazz Awards in South Africa.
Embodying a stellar African musical lineage, the eclectic tastes of a London upbringing, and a deep love and respect for the jazz tradition, Deelee possesses what the Jazz Times calls "a warm tone, genuine blues feeling, and easy rhythmic authority."
Recorded in New York with a stellar cast of musicians that includes guitarist Russell Malone and pianist Benito Gonzalez.
Personnel: Deelee Dube (vocals), Russell Malone (guitar), Benito Gonzalez (piano/organ/producer/arranger), Corcoran Holt (double bass), Mark Whitfield Jr. (drums), Eric Wyatts (tenor saxophone); Duane Eubanks (trumpet), Andrae Murchison (trombone)
