This year I’ll be returning to perform at the Harmony Project’s Annual Gala. I’m excited to lend my voice to this private event which celebrates and uplifts the musical development of young students.
I’m thrilled to be performing alongside jazz greats Jason Moran and the Marcus Shelby Orchestra at the Healdsburg Jazz Festival!

From the festival website—
“The evening starts with a 30-minute solo performance by Jason Moran, a MacArthur “Genius” Fellow, artistic director for jazz at the Kennedy Center, and among the most celebrated pianists of his generation.
Afterwards, he’ll be joined by Shelby’s talent-packed orchestra featuring rising vocal star Darynn Dean, a strikingly gifted chanteuse who hails from an illustrious Los Angeles jazz clan.
Her February performances with Moran and Shelby announced the arrival of a major new talent, just as the SFJAZZ residency revealed the deep conceptual and sonic affinities between Moran, described by Rolling Stone as “the most provocative thinker in current jazz,” and Shelby, whose deeply informed works revel in the soulful sinew connecting Harlem stride piano, Ellington, Monk and Andrew Hill.”
Join me virtually for a vibrant performance on International Jazz Day in Abu Dhabi, UAE!
