Music All Ages
…a little piece of jazz heaven
The duo of Vancouver-based jazz vocalist Kate Hammett-Vaughan and guitarist Bill Coon is a little piece of jazz heaven. Acclaimed for her sophisticated and swinging interpretations of jazz standards, Hammett-Vaughan's free-spirited delivery is perfectly matched by Coon's smooth-as-satin melodic style and irresistible swing. A three-time Juno nominee, Hammett-Vaughan has been acclaimed as “a revelation... a talent that all Canadians should recognize” (Toronto Star) and “the finest jazz vocal artist of her generation” (Chronicle Herald). Juno nominee Bill Coon plays “with an arranger’s sense of possibility” (Montreal Gazette) and is simply one of the nation’s great guitarists, a swinging and sensitive accompanist with the whole history of jazz guitar under his fingers. Their new duo CD, Imagination:Live at the Cellar, is simultaneously fresh and enchanting, capturing the charm of their live performances. Their playful, swinging, and sensitive interaction is delightful, polishing well-worn gems and shining light on little-known treasures from the great American songbook.
