Melody Gardot with KIFF
Upstairs Live Thursday, May 31, 2007 Showtime 8pm Tickets $10 + $3 processing fee* *$1 processing fee when purchasing with CASH BEFORE day of show
"A phenomenal singer" – Mike Doughty (Artist, ATO Records) Pull down your shades and light some candles. A simple, yet poignant blend of jazz and folk is headed your way. At 22, singer-songwriter Melody Gardot has a hauntingly smooth voice that can melt even the coldest of hearts. With the lyrical sensibility of old-time legends like Cole Porter and the innate phrasing ability usually reserved for greats such as Billie Holiday, Gardot is in a class all her own.
Trend Central says, "A mix of rock, pop, funk, soul paired with a killer voice and some serious skills on the piano, Kiff brings a refreshing complexity to the singer-songwriter scene." His unique blend of artistic gravity and broad commercial viability draws comparisons to artists as diverse as Stevie Wonder, Ben Folds and Maroon 5. KIFF's self-written and produced "You Can't Keep it Down" was a op-10 Indie pick of 2006 by Music Connection magazine and his award winning songs have been featured on AAA-radio and national network TV.
