Vocalist Kate McGarry is an award-winning jazz visionary known for her iconic, crystalline voice and genrebending repertoire. Approaching both jazz standards and the popular music of her youth with "uncommon sincerity and interpretive wisdom, McGarry finds hidden depths in the Great American Songbook and transforms songs we thought we knew into profoundly articulate new works of art." (Irish Times)
