About the event

From the organizer, as published on Ticketmaster.

Among the most celebrated jazz artists to emerge in the 21st century, Brandee Younger is a harpist, composer and bandleader whose music connects spiritual jazz and classical training to the rhythmic soulfulness of R&B and hip-hop. She grew up on Long Island, where she sang gospel, studied the harp classically and became enamored of both hip-hop and the vintage soul that rap producers sampled.

When Younger was a teenager, her father introduced her to Alice Coltrane's music --- a transformative moment that all but defined her life's journey. Her first LP for the storied Impulse!

Records label --- a.k.a. The House That Trane Built --- was 2021's Somewhere Different.

A track from that album, , "rdquo" -> Beautiful Is Black," earned Younger a Grammy nomination in the Best Instrumental Composition category, making her the first Black female solo artist to achieve this. Two years later, on Brand New Life, Younger revitalized newly discovered Ashby compositions, and that LP won the 2024 NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Jazz Album.

Gadabout Season, released in 2025, is a more reflective and personal work focusing on Younger's inimitable original music. In addition to her non-stop performance schedule, Younger is a dedicated educator, teaching on the faculties of New York University and the New School.
