Liz Johnson/Kelli Cox Quartet Live at NJW
On Friday, June 21 at 8pm, the Nashville Jazz Workshop welcomes vocalist Liz Johnson and pianist Kelli Cox to the Jazz Cave. They'll be joined by bassist Jonathan Wires and drummer Rick Reed.
Besides being a frequent and popular performer in the Jazz Cave, Liz is a longtime member of the NJW faculty. Her teaching responsibilities include classes in vocal technique, vocal health, and keyboard skills for vocalists, along many other classes and workshops.
An Illinois native, Liz began her musical study at age 6 with piano and moved to flute and then alto saxophone in high school and college, playing in local jazz bands. After college she moved to Nashville, where she found the Nashville Jazz Workshop and began several years of intensive study of voice and improvisation. She moved from student to accomplished performer and jazz artist, performing regularly in Nashville and around the country. Her second CD, "Playground," was released in 2003, and has received national acclaim and airplay. In 2004 Liz was invited to perform at the Montreux Switzerland Jazz Festival as a semi finalist in the international vocal jazz competition. Her latest CD is entitled "Joy Unspeakable."
Liz has a Master's degree in Vocal Performance from Belmont University and a Certificate in Vocology through the University of Utah and the National Center for Voice and Speech. She also serves as the Central Region Governor for the Pan American Vocology Association (PAVA) and as the Certificate Program Coordinator for Nashville Jazz Workshop (NJW). Liz coordinates the vocal program for the NJW's Summer Jazz Camp
Liz says, "I love learning how things work and then using that knowledge to help people grow and heal. My first and second loves are psychology and jazz, which have become the basis for helping singers regain voice ability and more awareness of their innate talents."
