About this Event
“Her laid-back personality resonates through her music – she has a way of taking anything and making it sound cool.” - Lauren Bush, London Jazz News
A student of jazz legends, Ray Brown, John Clayton, and Jeff Hamilton, Kristin’s musical family tree has deep roots in groove, connection, and joy. Her added layer of singing is a natural extension of Korb’s love of melody, good stories, and years of listening to her vocal sheroes like Ella Fitzgerald, Carmen McRae, and Shirley Horn. Playing and singing at the same time? She makes it look (and sound) easy.
So, how did this American end up in Denmark? Love. (You know, you can’t resist a viking.)
Since moving to Denmark in 2011, she has returned regularly to the US for concerts and educational outreach. Uptown Lounge is honored to be one of the stops on Kristin Korb's 2023 US tour.
Korb’s latest release, "What If? / Why Not?” explores the jazz and pop sides of her personality. On “What if?", Korb departs from her Great American Songbook tradition and dives deep into the exploration of pop tunes that burst with Korb’s trademark exuberance and inspired arrangements. The flip side of “What If?” is “Why Not?”. It features Korb’s love of foot-tapping standards and lesser known gems with the intimate feel of an “unplugged” album.
This is your personal invitation to join the party.
