Sun 9/29 @ 7:30PM
Diana Krall’s blonde good looks and sultry stage presence have catapulted her to the top of the list of best-known and most successful jazz singers today. Her music goes down easily, as she doesn’t push the picket too much and offers a repertoire of both familiar and familiar-sounding songs that draw from early-mid 20s century standards and pop songwriting.
Her 20-year career has produced a string of hit albums. Her latest album Glad Rag Doll released late last year leans very heavily on her sex appeal. (The label is promoting the highly styled, glamorous images along with the music). She interprets 13 pop tunes, both contemporary and from as far back as the ’20s, with her throaty, sleepy, come-hither vocals deftly supported as usual by her agile piano playing and a cast of other seasoned musicians.
She’ll be at Playhouse Square’s State Theatre.
Tickets are $10-$102.
