Join us for a live taping and listening-room concert for the Bree Romeo Quartet!Bree Romeo – VocalsJoao Camargo – PianoDaniel Durham – BassMasumi Jones – DrumsSince joining Slim Richey onstage in 2013 and later becoming a member of his band, the Jitterbug Vipers, Bree Romeo has built a reputation as one of Central Texas’s most compelling and technically accomplished jazz vocalists — a rare artist whose command of the voice is matched by unmistakable emotional depth. Drawing inspiration from legends like Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughan, Blossom Dearie, and Anita O'Day, she blends virtuosic phrasing, fearless improvisation, smoky blues sensibility, and soulful storytelling into a sound entirely her own. With formal training in theater and more than 25 years of live performance experience, her work carries not only extraordinary vocal precision, but also a profound understanding of mood, dynamics, and human connection. Whether interpreting a jazz standard, bending deep into the blues, or delivering an intimate ballad, Bree Romeo brings a presence audiences immediately recognize: honest, emotionally fearless artistry from a vocalist who cannot be imitated and is never forgotten.––––Make a donation to be recognized:Supporter Level: Donate $50 or more, and we'll mention your name as a Supporter of the "AJS Presents: Midweek @ Monks" series, as part of the mission to creating more sustaining performance opportunities for Austin jazz musicians!Sponsor Level: Donate $100 or more, you’ll be recognized as a Sponsor of the "AJS Presents: Midweek @ Monks" series.Please Note: This is a live-taping, so we'll be enforcing a whisper-policy!
