We're really thrilled that the infectious spirit of vocalist Jazzmeia Horn will be performing at our #NYCWJF this year, on the 2nd night of our festival's marathon (1/13/18) at 7:00 PM at Zinc Bar. Her band The Artistry of Jazz Horn will be fantastic and you should certainly catch them - Victor Gould (piano), Barry Stephenson (bass), Henry Conerway III (drums), Marcus Miller (saxophone), Corey Wallace (trombone), Josh Evans (trumpet) with Horn on vocals. Winner of the 2015 Thelonius Monk International Vocal Jazz Competition and 2013 Sarah Vaughan International Jazz Vocal Competition, Jazzmeia Horn has a name that speaks for itself capturing her very essence. Hailing from the great Dallas, Texas Jazzmeia has already earned a reputation in New York as a “Rising Star.” With the ambition to pursue a solo career, Jazzmeia graced the New York scene in 2009 and earned her degree at The New School for Jazz and contemporary Music . It wasn’t much later when she began to perform as a sideman with musicians Winard Harper, Junior Mance, Billy Harper, Lincoln Center Alumni Vincent Gardner, Delfeayo Marsalis, Mike LeDonne, Peter Bernstein, Johnny O’Neal, Vincent Herring, Kirk Lightsey, Frank Wess, and Ellis Marsalis. She currently is teaching artist in The NJPAC Well’s FargoJazz for Teens Program and Jazz In The Schools Program in Newark, New Jersey. Don't miss The Artistry of Jazz Horn for yourself!
