After the successful release of our debut album, “Talking to Myself” we are working on new material before we head back into the studio.Katharine (Kat) Guiles Ellis is a CCJA trained vocalist who is currently studying jazz at C.U. Boulder. She is a featured vocalist with the Denver Jazz Orchestra and performs regularly with the PB&V Trio as well as her own ensemble. Her gift of expression and storytelling using her authentic and emotive voice lets her cover tunes ranging from reflective to torchy, witty to sorrowful.
“Pitch, diction, and phrasing are all meticulously polished, making for a presentation that is both professional and assured.” (Paris-Move, 9/25)
