Contemporary Tapestry Weaving, 5592 Poplar Lane, Bellevue MD
Sunday, May 20, 5:00pm LENA SEIKALY with STEVE HERBERMAN
The Tapestry Gallery 5592 Poplar Lane Royal Oak/Bellevue, MD 21662
One-hour concert followed by wine and cheese reception with artists.
Celebrating their brand new recording, "A Little Closer” -- a snapshot of the dynamic duo Lena Seikaly (vocals) and Steve Herberman (guitar), exploring favorites from their respective repertoires from the 1920s and '30s through the hard bop and bossa nova eras.
Back by popular demand, LENA SEIKALY is a fresh voice on the national jazz scene from Washington, D.C. Named “one of Washington’s preeminent jazz singers” and “brightest voices in jazz” (The Washington Post), as well as a “major league young talent in jazz” by Duke Ellington’s biographer, Dr. John Hasse, Lena is already making her mark as both a revivalist of traditional jazz vocals, as well as an innovator in contemporary vocal jazz styles. Lena has been featured at the Monty Alexander Jazz Festival and as part of Carpe Diem's community concerts.
