RootStock @ Wyldflower: Tiffany Austin

WyldFlowr Arts
809 37th St, Oakland, CA 94608
Doors 7pm, Show at 7:30pm

Vocalist Tiffany Austin’s tradition-rooted yet totally modern style has established her as one of the fastest rising jazz stars in Northern California. Before earning a law degree at U.C. Berkeley, she’d performed on three continents—around her native Los Angeles while attending college, then for a year in England, and eventually for five and a half years in Tokyo. However, instead of taking the bar exam, she decided instead to devote her life to her first love—music.

Drawing upon influences such as Sarah Vaughan, Ella Fitzgerald, Nina Simone, and Aretha Franklin, Tiffany also infuses songs with her own signature style that is precise, intelligent, and soulful. Her nuanced delivery has caught the attention of eminent artists, whom she has joined onstage: vibraphonist Roy Ayers at Motion Blue (Japan), drummer Tommy Campbell at the Blue Note (NYC), and saxophonist John Handy for a three-night engagement at Dizzy’s (NYC) commemorating his 1965 Monterey Jazz Festival performance.
