With a deep respect for lyrical storytelling, cellist/singer-songwriter SHANA TUCKER delivers a unique voice through her self-described genre of ChamberSou (TM)l.  Shana's melodies weave strong hints of jazz, classical, soulful folk, acoustic pop, and a touch of R&B into a distinctive rhythmic tapestry.

Touted by "Jazz Times Magazine" as a jazz talent "...whose imprint and vitality have already been quite visible..." Shana's style and sound have been described as a blend of Dianne Reeves, Joni Mitchell, and Tracy Chapman, with an efficient complexity that is reminiscent of Bill Withers.  ChamberSoul (TM) best describes what the listener should expect when experiencing Shana's music.  "I'm intrinsically drawn to 'real' instruments, with resonance, tone, and depth that can sound without amplification.  Whenever and however possible, I always try to set a tone of acoustic intimacy with my colleagues on stage and also with the audience, so that the music, performers, and audience feel close and tangible, no matter the size of the venue."

 The event is part of the Centre Stage Series - A Complimentary Event.
