The Tierney Sutton Band

Earlier this month, The Tierney Sutton Band received its second consecutive Grammy Nomination for Best Vocal Jazz Album. This is the latest honor to come from a 14-year collaboration that has resulted in a JazzWeek Award for Vocalist of the year, consecutive nominations for Jazz Journalist Association awards, several 1 Cds on jazz radio, and critical praise throughout the world. Comprised of vocalist Tierney Sutton and instrumental virtuosos Christian Jacob, Trey Henry, Kevin Axt and Ray Brinker, the band has headlined in recent years at Carnegie Hall, The Kennedy Center, The Hollywood Bowl and Jazz at Lincoln Center. They have recorded 7 CD's to increasing recognition and acclaim. The band’s most recent disc, “On The Other Side”, was released in February of this year and has been called by BusinessWeek “A Masterpiece .eloquent, honest and magnificantly sung and played.”

Still, the band's greatest accomplishment is its continuing commitment to unity, excellence and creative collaboration. All musical arrangements as well as business decisions are made by the band members as full partners. A concert by the Tierney Sutton Band is an experience of rare and powerful harmony achieved by humble performers at the top of their game.

Critics agree that the reason this band endures is in the music: “phenomenal rapport”. “The chemistry is palpable”. “telpathic give and take”. “a serious artist who takes the whole enterprise to another level” . “top-flight one and all”. “total connection”. “a seamless blend with superlative bandmates”. “an uncanny display of spirit and unity”.
