The Brandee Younger Trio

From the venue:

Jazz harpist Brandee Younger, acclaimed for revolutionizing the harp’s role in modern music, builds on her classical training with the rhythmic soulfulness of R&B and hip-hop. The first Black woman to be nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Instrumental Composition in 2022, in 2024 she won an NAACP Image Award for  Outstanding Jazz Album, Brand New Life.

Forging new paths—artistic, personal, political, and spiritual, Brandee has worked with other cultural icons, including Common, Lauryn Hill, John Legend, Pharoah Sanders, the Roots, Christian McBride, and Stevie Wonder. Her original composition “Hortense” was featured in the Netflix Concert-Documentary Beyonce: Homecoming. Her third album, Gadabout Season, includes original works evoking our shared search for joy—our search “for meaning and beauty amid life’s most complex moments.”

Concert takes place in the sanctuary followed by Q&A with Jazz at All Saints’ Artistic Director Virginia Schenck and reception.
