Samara Joy is returning to Kansas City for the first time since her 2023 sold-out concert at the Folly Theater. Critics are already comparing this 25-year-old, 5-time GRAMMY® winning, once-in-a-generation vocalist to Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughn, and Billie Holiday. She gained recognition at age 19 after winning the 2019 Sarah Vaughan International Jazz Vocal Competition and became known for her rich, velvety yet precociously refined and masterful interpretation of jazz standards.
In 2023, she won her first two GRAMMY® awards for “Best New Artist” and “Best Jazz Vocal Album.” Her concerts sell-out around the world as she continues to demonstrate that she is a rightful heiress of the sound, technique, and charisma that defined her jazz heroines – including Vaughan, Betty Carter, Abbey Lincoln, and Carmen McRae. In 2025, she won additional GRAMMYS® for A Joyful Holiday. Her latest album, Portrait, co-produced with Brian Lynch, highlights her lyrical talents and earned her an NAACP Image Award.
