Presented by Virginia Arts Festival. “Vocal virtuosity…with a broad range of material that showed her assurance on easygoing ballads, soft, Brazilian scat singing, and punchy pep songs.” – The New York Times

With a well-seasoned voice and a gift for finding the heart of a song, Stephanie Nakasian brings a lot more to a performance than just a set of albeit perfect pipes. Her knowledge of music generally and jazz specifically spices up a set with backstage stories that enliven and endear, including tales from her own career, from her early days scatting with Jon Hendricks to gigs up and down the club circuit and beyond.
