The KUVO Studio Club presents the Jeanna McLean Quartet on Tuesday, April 9 at 7 pm. This performance will celebrate Denver-based jazz vocalist Jenna McLean’s debut solo album, “Brighter Day,” funded in part by the Pathways to Jazz program through the Boulder County Arts Alliance. The album is comprised of Jenna’s original lyrics and arrangements of celebrated jazz compositions to recognize the remarkable resilience of the human spirit amidst a turbulent world. The album pays tribute to many of our most influential jazz artists including Wayne Shorter, Carmen McRae, and Stan Getz.

The Quartet: Jenna McLean-voice, Steve Kovalcheck-guitar, Tom Amend-piano, and Seth Lewis-bass

Jenna McLean is a Colorado native with degrees in classical vocal performance and jazz studies. Jenna is currently pursuing a doctorate in Jazz Studies at UNC. With a love and devotion for jazz, funk, soul and classical genres, she maintains the belief that all music is good music as long as it speaks to the soul and grooves. Jenna is passionate about bringing creativity and integrity to honest expression through lyrics in the jazz idiom.
