Join me for the Aug. 3, 2020, edition of After Hours on KCAW Raven Radio as I’m joined in conversation with up-and-coming Montréal-based jazz vocalist Laura Anglade.

Laura is currently making a name for herself on the Canadian jazz scene and beyond. Originally from a small village in the south of France and raised in Connecticut, she is influenced by her parents’ gypsy jazz and classical backgrounds.

Some of her inspirations include Carmen McRae, Sarah Vaughan, Nancy Wilson, Anita O’Day, Shirley Horn and Blossom Dearie. Laura has made several appearances on the New York, Québec City and Toronto jazz scenes, and performs regularly at local venues, including Upstairs Jazz Bar and Grill and Dièse Onze.

She has also performed in numerous jazz festivals including the Festival International de Jazz de Montréal. Her debut album “I’ve Got Just About Everything”, which came out in June 2019 on Justin Time Records, has been met with praise by critics and fans alike.

Join me for the May 25, 2020, edition of After Hours on KCAW Raven Radio as I’m joined for an uplifting and stirring conversation with Eliane Elias.

Eliane has had a distinguished career spanning nearly 30 albums, and is a multi-GRAMMY winning pianist/singer/composer. Her distinctive and intoxicating musical style has emerged as one of the most unique and immediately recognizable sounds in jazz.

With more than 2.2 million albums sold to date, she blends her Brazilian roots and alluring voice with her virtuosic instrumental jazz, classical and compositional skills, while she consistently displays her pianistic mastery and ability to integrate the many artistic roles she takes on. Jazziz Magazine describes Eliane as “an artist beyond category.”
