About

Late-blooming and fast-rising jazz vocalist Ed Reed - who released his prized debut album in 2007 at age 78, and nabbed the top "rising star" status for male vocalists in the 2014 DownBeat Editors Poll - heads to Healdsburg on the opening Friday night, May 29. For this special occasion, Reed will turn the homage spotlight on the classic pairing of "voices" from the early ‘60s, when tenor sax great John Coltrane magically met baritone Johnny Hartman on the landmark album John Coltrane and Johnny Hartman. Joining Reed, whose latest album, I’m a Shy Guy, won critical and commercial success, will be pianist Adam Shulman and bassist John Wiitala, with tenor saxophonist Anton Schwartz bringing his Coltrane-esque style to this special musical tribute.
