BRIANNA THOMAS BAND


Hailed by The Wall Street Journal as “perhaps the best young straight-ahead jazz singer of a new generation,” Brianna Thomas is poised to join the ranks of legendary jazz artists. With regular performances at Jazz at Lincoln Center, major jazz festivals worldwide, and recently acclaimed album releases, her star is rising. DownBeat recently gave her latest album, Everybody Knows, a four-star review.  Brianna’s talents have propelled her to many successes, including performances at the Montreux, North Sea, and Umbria Jazz Festivals and in venues ranging from the Bahamas to Geneva, Switzerland. Brianna’s extensive list of stateside performances includes appearances with Fred Anderson, Von Freeman, Houston Person, and the Barber Brothers. She has performed across the country from New Orleans to Washington, DC’s Kennedy Center. In 2001, Thomas was awarded “High School Jazz Vocalist of the Year” by DownBeat magazine. Brianna has blazed a path in the world of jazz and continues a stellar ascent. With dedication, hard work, and a sparkling personality, she is sure to become one of jazz’s most prominent voices. Legendary trombonist Curtis Fuller hailed her as a “marvelous new artist who has all it takes to reach the top of the jazz profession and music in general.”
