Kellylee Evans

Kellylee Evans’ desire for jazz was accidental. Shed around the campus of Carleton University or college, where she analyzed law and British, she mistakenly reached the music division and dropped for what she noticed. A vocalist who crosses between jazz and mature vintage R&B, her profession received a drive in 2004 when she completed second in the Thelonious Monk Jazz Competition, judged by famous brands Quincy Jones, Flora Purim, and Al Jarreau. She debuted individually in 2006 with Battle or Flight, that was nominated for any Juno Honor and followed another year with a live edition. Nina, a pared-down tribute to Nina Simone, aswell as THE NICE Girl, had been released this year 2010. The previous received a Juno Honor in the group of Greatest Vocal Jazz Recording. Universal France released her fourth appropriate album, I RECALL When, in 2014. The arranged featured addresses of John Legend’s “Regular People” and Kanye West’s “Amazing,” aswell as “I AM,” a track motivated by Eminem and traditional soul.
