SAN FRANCISCO: KURT ELLING AT YOSHI'S
Vocalist Kurt Elling presents songs from his album '1619 Broadway - The Brill Building Project' at YOSHI'S (1330 Fillmore Street, San Francisco, CA - 415-655-5600) on Saturday (8:00 & 10:30 pm) and Sunday (7:00 & 9:00 pm), March 22nd & 23rd. He is joined on stage by Xavier Davis - Piano, Clark Sommers - Bass, Kendrick Scott - Drums, and John McLean - Guitar. With his new album, Kurt Elling - the outstanding male vocalist in jazz today - celebrates a legendary legacy outside the jazz world. 1619 Broadway - The Brill Building Project honors a locale that has been called "the most important generator of popular songs in the Western world." Even for the ceaselessly inventive GRAMMY-winning singer-lyricist, it's a hugely unexpected step, and one guaranteed to further solidify his reputation for bold innovation and superb craftsmanship. Elling developed his craft in Chicago, and recorded several of his early albums there - including his debut, Close Your Eyes, which catapulted him onto the national stage and earned the first of his many GRAMMY nominations. But in fact, Elling and his family have lived in Manhattan since 2008, and 1619 Broadway - The Brill Building Project is his response to that experience.
