Canada’s award-winning jazz songbird doles out some holiday cheer with her all-star band.
Taking repertoire from her two seasonal albums Winter Wonderland and Lumières d’hiver, Emilie-Claire’s voice breathes new life into timeless, familiar melodies, and introduces new original repertoire. The evening will be a warm, nostalgic, festive, and joyful musical celebration.
Critically acclaimed Emilie-Claire Barlow is not only a jazz singer but also an arranger, record producer, and voice actress. A two-time Juno Award winner, she has released 12 self-produced albums on her own label, Empress Music Group.
Barlow has led bands featuring the finest musicians in Canada. Her work as a band leader and producer has been recognized with a Juno Award nomination for Producer of Year for her recording
Clear Day (2015) – notable for being only the second jazz recording nominated in this category. She is also one of very few women to be honoured as Producer of the Year.
