LOIS
DELOATCH & FRIENDS PRESENT - ROOTS: JAZZ/BLUES/SPIRITUALS
Lois Deloatch premieres her new
recording, Roots: Jazz/Blues/Spirituals, August
15th at POLYRHYTHMS
Third Sunday Jazz Workshop & Matinee Series in the Redstone
Room, at the RME on the corner of 2nd &
For nearly two decades,
vocalist and songwriter Deloatch has been immersed in
music, headlining concerts, conducting music education workshops, lectures, and
emceeing events. Noted for her rich contralto
voice and expansive repertoire, Deloatch’s
performances highlight and integrate spirituals, jazz, and blues as well as
original and standard compositions. Hymn to Freedom:
Homage to Oscar Peterson, her fourth recording as
leader, was released in limited edition in 2008 and garnered international
accolades including selection as one of the Top 10 CDs of 2008 by JazzTimes Magazine’s music critic
Owen Cordle.
The August 15 concert will
feature guitarist Scott Sawyer, Deloatch’s longtime
music accompanist and co-producer of the new recording. Bassist Ron Wilson and percussionist Manuel Lopez, III will
join Deloatch and Sawyer for the concert.
“Roots: Jazz/Blues/Spirituals” includes a thoughtful and eclectic mix of
compositions including Wade in the Water, Steal
Away, and Good Morning Heartache as well as three
of Deloatch’s original compositions.
“As jazz vocalist, with a
sultry voice and presentation in the tradition of Sarah Vaughn, and as a
lyricist, Lois Deloatch gives testament to the well
known but not always observed fact that knowing the meaning of lyrics is
essential to any meaningful interpretation of a song whether one is a singer or
instrumentalist. Nevertheless, only some voices are blessed with that
jazz sound, feeling, and intuition, and Lois is surely one of them.” Bob Gish, Jazz Improv Magazine.
A longtime resident of
Polyrhythms Third Sunday Jazz Matinee
& Workshop Series at the RME’s Redstone Room is
scheduled for the third Sunday, August 15th,
and features an all-ages workshop at
Doors open at
