Concert: Alexis Cole Trio

Join us for an afternoon of remixed jazz standards, featuring Alexis Cole on keys and singing with her long time trio of David Finck on bass and Kenny Hassler on drums, moving together with a seeming telepathy through the jazz standard repertoire and beyond. Vocalist Alexis Cole is an accomplished jazz performer with a sophisticated, urbane style and warm, resonant voice, well suited to traditional standards and swing. Cole has performed with the likes of Fred Hersch, Bucky Pizzarelli, Don Braden and Matt Wilson. Although based in N. Y. C., she has played and taught in locales worldwide, including teaching at an affiliate of the Berklee College of Music in Ecuador and as a faculty member in the jazz voice programs at SUNY Purchase, William Paterson University and Western Connecticut State. In 2020 she founded the online educational community JazzVoice.com and in 2021 co-founded the Virginia Beach Vocal Jazz Summit VocalJazzSummit.org.
