Acclaimed vocalist Lizz Wright, celebrated for her “smooth, dark alto” that conjures images of barrel-aged bourbon and butter-soft leather, delivers a transcendent live performance. Her 20-year career unites audiences through a profound display of love and deep humanity in every note she sings.
Renowned for her rich, velvety voice and deeply evocative performances, Lizz Wright makes her highly anticipated Stanford Jazz Festival debut. With a career spanning 20 years, Wright unites audiences through love, humanity, and raw emotion, making every note she sings a profound experience.
Rooted in the call-and-response traditions of her Southern upbringing in Georgia, Wright’s music seamlessly blends jazz, gospel, folk, and soul, creating a sound that is both timeless and deeply personal. In 2022, she launched her own independent label, Blues & Greens Records, and released her studio debut album, Shadow, in April 2024. Featuring collaborations with Angélique Kidjo and Meshell Ndegeocello, Shadow is an intimate exploration of love, loss, community, and healing, wrapped in acoustic guitars, lush string quartets, and gospel harmonies.
Don’t miss this chance to witness one of the most captivating voices of our time, live in concert.
