While this engagement marks her San Francisco debut, Carmen Lundy is a bona fide jazz master who first made her mark more than three decades ago. Championed by jazz giants like Geri Allen, Billy Childs, Bobby Watson, and Walter Bishop, Jr., Lundy is a renaissance woman whose creativity knows no bounds. A brilliant songwriter with several contemporary standards to her credit ("These Things You Are to Me"), she's an actress, painter, bandleader, arranger, and composer with an extensive book of finely wrought original songs.
On stage, she's a riveting performer, utterly at ease and open to wherever the music needs to go.
