Jane Monheit is one of the finest vocalists working today. Blessed with “a voice of phenomenal beauty” (Stephen Holden, New York Times), Monheit has had plenty of milestone moments in establishing herself as one of today’s best and most important vocalist-musicians. Monheit’s mellifluous voice has been compared to Ella Fitzgerald’s incandescent instrument, both possessed of an effortless melodicism, expert timing, and a gift for flawless diction. Come What May, her first album in five years, features a mix of upbeat standards, fresh takes on well-loved ballads, and lesser-known tunes. The album is a catharsis in light of the pandemic, and as the title and song selection suggest, is a statement of resiliency and hope. She'll be performing live at the California Center for the Arts, Escondido on Friday, March 4 at 7:30 p.m. Get tickets here! Ticket prices ranging from $25 to $55.
