An evening of voice and piano in intimate conversation, blending jazz standards with original songwriting.
Vocalist Calli Graver and pianist Adam Faulk bring together their shared roots in jazz with the wider musical worlds each artist draws from — Calli's crossover sensibility spanning jazz, classical, and pop, and Adam's work across jazz, hip-hop, and R&B. The result is a set that moves fluidly between the sophistication of the jazz tradition and something more personal and song-driven.

About the Musicians:
Calli Graver has shaped a versatile career as a crossover vocalist. Raised by musician parents in Lancaster, PA, Calli’s love for jazz, classical and pop helped shape the genre-bending sound heard in her original music today. Not only has she sung with legends like Josh Groban, Aretha Franklin,andAndrea Bocelli, but she’s also been honored to work with several symphonies, orchestras and philharmonics spanning the nation. Calli relocated to Philadelphia to pursue her degree from the University of the Arts. She received a Bachelors of Music in vocal performance, followed by a Masters of Music in the jazz studies program. She has performed with prominent jazz figures, including Christian McBride, Peter Nero, big acts like Michael Bublé, and co-produced an original jazz suite entitled “The Divine Lorraine.” Calli’s first solo endeavor was the holiday jazz album “Cheer!” that she released in 2017. The impact of Calli’s musical schooling led her to also become an accomplished music educator. Calli is an adjunct professor at Millersville University and Community College of Philadelphia, teaches k-12 vocal instruction at The Shipley School, and teaches private lessons from her home. In addition to much of Calli’s time spent performing in various Philadelphia based bands, she finds balance in time with friends and family. She loves to learn and still strives to enjoy daily comforts, and her music certainly reflects that. Her new release, “The Sun’s In My Eyes” accompanies fans in their day to day journeys, exploring sophisticated writing and musicianship with warmth, nostalgia, and plain ol’ fun! Under producer Ben O’Neill (John Legend, Jill Scott), Calli’s vocal abilities and expressive nature are on full display and the music continues to excite audiences across the country.
Calli can also be seen in the Oscar Nominated film “Maestro” as a professional chorister with the Philadelphia Symphonic Choir performing ”Make Our Garden Grow” from Bernstein’s Candide. You can watch it right now on Netflix!
Adam Faulk is a Jazz pianist, writer, and producer originally from the Greater Boston area. He was first introduced to music through violin lessons at the age of five. In high school he switched to viola, which he played in the Greater Boston Youth Symphony Orchestra from 1995-1998. Around this time he gravitated to the piano and attended the Oberlin Conservatory of Music, graduating in 1998.
Since attending Oberlin, Adam has had the privilege and pleasure to play and study with such artists as Donald Byrd, Billy Hart, Robin Eubanks, Gary Bartz and Marcus Belgrave. Faulk has studied under George W. Russell Jr., the late Neal Creque, Lafayette Harris Jr. and Dan Wall.
When Adam isn’t performing you will find him in the studio: writing, producing and arranging Jazz, hip-hop and R&B. Most recently Faulk was musical director for the late singer Billy Paul, who passed away in 2016. Adam has also recorded with the Cleveland-based smooth-Jazz group Morris Code on their fourth album Nothin’ but a Daydream and continues to freelance with Jazz and R&B groups in the Philadelphia area.
