Singer Jonathan Karrant salutes the music of legendary lyricist Johnny Mercer. Mercer's compositions made a significant impact on the Great American Songbook, including songs like "Autumn Leaves", "Moon River", "Skylark" "Summer Wind" and so many more. Mercer was a top writer for Capital Records in the 1950's and 60's and collaborated with several iconic composers such as Henry Mancini, Johnny Mandael and Herold Arlen just to name a few. His songwriting was considered to be very prolific and provocative, creating word images through his lyrics, triggering thoughts and emotions. His songwriting has inspired the works of many lyricists such as Barry Manilow and Alan and Marilyn Bergman.With a repertoire that spans classic jazz standards and contemporary interpretations, Karrant brings a modern elegance to the timeless genre of jazz. Karrant has recorded several of Mercer's songs and will be performing many of Mercer's most popular hits on September 14th, 2024.
Jonathan Karrant's album, “On and On” hit #4 on the Billboard Jazz charts and his album Live hit #2 on the iTunes Jazz Charts. He has received honors throughout the states including; the New York City Cabaret Jazz Honors, “Best Singer” for the Bravo California Awards and was named one of the top 10 rising jazz vocalists by Downbeat. “A voice, romantic without being cloying, warm but not forced, Jonathan carries songs with an emotional weight that reaches your soul. At the same time he can swing with the kind of jazz suave that was patented by Mel Torme.” Jazz Corner
