The Statuary Presents: Vanisha Gould Quartet

The Statuary Presents: Vanisha Gould Quartet

NPR'S Nate Chinen remarked, “Two of the best jazz vocal albums released this year, against stiff competition, were the work of Vanisha Gould, who combines a blues cry with a storyteller's point of view.” Hear this incredible artist Friday May 2nd at The Statuary, it won’t be too long before she is only playing concert halls!

About the Artist:

Vanisha Gould came to New York in 2015 from Simi Valley, California. Inspired by artists like Billie Holiday, Nina Simone, Joni Mitchell, Carmen McRae and Ella Fitzgerald - Vanisha has successfully curated her own sound as a composer and band leader. Performing originals and music from the Great American Songbook on several groundbreaking stages all throughout America, and overseas, she aspires to continue sharing her voice with audiences in New York and beyond.

About "The Statuary'' - "Where the line between the band and the audience ceases to exist. Jersey City's intimate home for jazz, art, and culture." The Statuary originated in 1907 as the Jersey Statuary Company of Jersey City where the two-story house was Gino DeSanctis's, sculptor and painter, workshop. In 2007, the building was converted into an active artist live/work/present space that has since been a home for community members to celebrate artistic expression, diversity, inclusion, and love through music. The Statuary echoes the mood of the 1970s Jazz Loft scene and provides a platform for innovative and culturally significant local, regional, and national musical talent creating an ethereal atmosphere akin to the history that has shaped this one of a kind space.

This event is in partnership with https://RiverviewJazz.Org and supported by public funds from the Jersey City Arts and Culture Trust Fund.

Sincerely,

The Statuary
