Rachelle Ferrell April 28, 2006

When Rachelle Ferrell burst onto the contemporary jazz scene in the early nineties, she provided not only one of the most powerful and unique new voices in music, but also an important bridge between R&B and jazz. Equally at home singing contemporary R&B soul or straight-ahead jazz, Rachelle Ferrell is a musical anomaly ? not so much because she can do both ? but because she does both so well. Rachelle's musicianship, songwriting, intuition and astonishing six-octave vocal range set her apart from her contemporaries. With her sophisticated melodies, smooth grooves and stunning voice, Rachelle Ferrell and her R&B band launch their debut performance at Yoshi?s.
