Eugenie Jones: Women in Jazz Month Tour
March’s Women in Jazz Month comes alive as award-winning singer-songwriter Eugenie Jones lights up the Royal Room with her national Women in Jazz Month Tour. Traveling through Denver, San Francisco, Atlanta, and Seattle, this tour joins a worldwide tribute to the women who shaped jazz, honoring trailblazers such as Billie Holiday, Nina Simone, and Ella Fitzgerald.
At the Royal Room, Jones will blend beloved songs from female jazz legends, her own Jazz Week #4 ranked originals, imaginative spins on vintage jazz, and timeless rhythm and blues. She’ll be joined by the remarkable talents of pianist Peter Adams, bassist Osama Afifi, and drummer Maria Wulff.
As the Seattle Jazz Hall of Fame inductee, first vocal recording artist to receive Earshot Jazz’s Album of the Year award, a two-time Vocalist of the Year winner, and a Jazz Journalists Association’s Jazz Hero Award winner, Jones has received high praise for her vocal prowess. Paris Move magazine describes Jones as “One of the most beautiful voices in the United States. A consummate interpreter who slips effortlessly into the soul of her songs.”
