Maureen Washington Jazz n Blues @Charslanding

Sun, Nov 5th, 2:30-4:30pm, Matinee Concert Maureen Washington Jazz and Blues & the Sweet Notes In-Between

2014 Winner for Black Canadian Awards for Best Jazz and Soul Artist

International Jazz singer, Maureen Washington, slips easily from sassy to sexy within a single line of lyrics, at times echoing the haunting tones of Etta James and Carmen McRae. She exudes the impish irreverence of Jann Arden and the vocal agility of Holly Cole, yet Maureens musical style remains distinctly her own.

Maureen began her musical career in Prince George, British Columbia. Now based in Victoria, British Columbia, Maureen is blessed with a growing fanbase as she performs with duos, sextets, and solo artists.

Maureen has recently released her ninth album Harvest Moon to popular and critical acclaim.

"Washington gave the evening her all and left nothing undone." Christine Skorepa, Prince George Citizen

"The power of Maureen's voice is enveloped by a lush sound that places you right there." Russell Bowers, CBC Radio

"Abundant stage flair and a luxuriant, powerful, emotive voice that grabs listeners." Lisa Szeker-Madden, Focus Magazine

"You owned the stage. You are a terrific talent. Dwight "The Wolfman"Wolfe - 93.1 CFIS-FM Prince George, BC
