A star reveals her soul
Emily Braden, the rising star of the New York jazz scene in New York, will be returning to The Living Room at Sheraton Grande Sukhumvit Hotel from September 4 to 22.
The Boise native will perform in the intimate surroundings of Bangkok’s leading live jazz venue with the Randy Cannon Group from Tuesday to Thursday from 9.15pm and every Friday and Saturday at 8.30pm onwards.
Renowned for his power-packed performances, Cannon’s piano playing is complemented by drummer Willard Dyson, and bassist Therdsak Wongvichien.
Braden has been described as “smokin’ hot” and “the sound of the new Harlem.” Whether she is fronting a genre-defying orchestra or leading a world-class trio in the heart of Manhattan, she has the innate ability to win the heart of any audience with her powerhouse vocals and striking stage presence.
Winner of New York City’s “Best of the Best” Jazzmobile Vocal Competition, Braden is a magnetic performer. Her signature sound is an effortless blend of jazz and soul. Her knock-out debut album “Soul Walk” is composed of high-energy original songs and “flipped-out” jazz standards.
She as performed at New York City’s top jazz venues including the Blue Note Jazz Club, Birdland Jazz Club, Le Poisson Rouge, BAM Cafe and Minton’s Playhouse, as well as on the international festival circuits. In April 2014, Braden was selected by the US Embassy to travel to Burkina Faso, West Africa as part of the Arts Envoy programme, where the Emily Braden Quartet closed out the Jazz at Ouaga Festival to a standing ovation. Her own group Double Bass, Double Voice released their debut album in the USA and Japan in February 2017.
