Jazz/soul vocalist Gregory Porter is hailed by Wynton Marsalis as “a fantastic young singer.” His debut album “Water” (May 11th, Motema Music) is eloquent and powerful. A frequent guest performer with the Jazz at Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra, Porter also maintains a long-standing residency at Harlem’s venerable St. Nick’s Pub, and performs internationally. He will be starring in “Low Down Dirty Blues” in Chicago from May 27 – July 3.
