A Sidney Summer double bill concert to benefit Angel Flight BC featuring vocalists Edie Daponte and Susannah Adams with Joey Smith on bass and guitar and Jan Stirling on grand piano.
A bold innovator, Susannah Adams is unafraid to explore the depth of jazz in order to find her true sound - a sound which is at once warm and lush, yet harkens back to the era of cool jazz. A classic approach with a contemporary twist, Adams' unique style is utterly compelling. With the release of her debut album As the Morning Light, Adams has established herself as an original lyricist, composer and arranger, as well as an interpreter of jazz standards.
