NICOLAS BEARDE QUINTET
Vocalist Nicolas Bearde, along with SF bay area’s finest including Tammy Hall on piano, brings us the music of Al Jarreau and more! Bearde, who has been a bay area treasure since he moved here from Nashville, TN in the 1980’s, is known for his velvet voice, wit and engaging rapport and has a style likened to Lou Rawls, Nat King Cole and Bill Withers. He originally made his mark as an original member of Bobby McFerrin’s innovative a cappella ensemble, Voicestra and later its off-shoot, SoVoSó. He has released 8 albums as a leader and is also the vocalist and narrator for saxophone great Vincent Herring’s “Story of Jazz Orchestra” that chronicles 100 years of recorded jazz. He has performed and/or recorded with jazz legends such as Nat Adderley, Jr, Vincent Herring, James Carter, Steve Turre, Jon Faddis, and Bobby McFerrin. With his supple phrasing and tender delivery, Bearde turns every song he sings into personal expressions of love, hope, and soul.
