DivaNation Philly, a jazz vocalist & musicians collective spawned by the Philadelphia Jazz Project and Philadelphia’s stellar jazz guitar sensation Monnette Sudler join up to present a concert highlighting a cast of all-female vocalists.
Monnette Sudler & her Ladies Night Out Combo (Monnette Sudler, Guitar; Camille Thurman, Tenor Sax: Noriko Kamo, Piano: Kim Clarke, Bass: Lucianna Padmore, Drums) will headline and back DivaNation vocalists Carol Harris, Sherry Wilson Butler, Khadijah Renee, Gretchen Elise, and DivaNation’s youngest new member - at age 14 - Haley Joyner! Haley will open the concert so don't be late!
The concert marries DivaNation with the shift towards the “divine feminine” brought on by recent end of the Mayan Calendar. “The founding concept of DivaNation was to re-invent the context of the word ‘Diva’ to a definition of an outstanding talented, smart, dynamic female, who contributes to the bank of jazz music and cares and supports her sister artists,” shares Khadijah Renee, a featured vocalist and DivaNation’s Co-Director. “We are dedicated to enhancing the presence of the creative divine feminine spirit in the genre of jazz music.” Songs featured will highlight women composers, lyricists, and the idea of the divine feminine in jazz.
DivaNation is a fiscally sponsored project of CultureWorks Greater Philadelphia.
