Fitz finds another pure talent and brings LIZZ WRIGHT to the McCallum!

Atlanta vocalist and songwriter Lizz Wright, whose gospel-infused style evokes

thoughts of such artists as Sarah Vaughan and Oleta Adams,

is creating a buzz as a young artist to watch.

Her first demo tape provoked a flurry of interest in the jazz world and, after a

showcase performance in New York, her uncommon gifts prompted

The Verve Music Group to sign her, welcoming her to the label of Billie Holiday,

Ella Fitzgerald, Dinah Washington, Vaughan, Shirley Horn, Abbey Lincoln, and Diana Krall.

Barely in her twenties, Lizz Wright has already established herself as a

powerful singer for a new generation and promises to take a notable place in their ranks.
