Event Description

Maureen Washington is the Winner of the 2014 Black Canadian Award for Best Jazz and Soul Artist! A consummate performer, she slips easily from sassy to sexy within a single line of lyrics, at times echoing the haunting tones of Etta James and Carmen McRae, then faster than the mind and ear can make the transition, Maureen Washington exudes the impish irreverence of Jann Arden and the vocal agility of Holly Cole. With all splendor attached to such comparisons, Maureen’s musical style remains distinctly her own.
