The Nice Work Ensemble at Nissi's -- featuring Heidi Schmidt (v), Pete Lewis(s), Jason Malmberg (b), Jerry Weiss (p), and Brian Kauffman (d).
Nice Work's style is rooted in mid-century modern jazz, with original arrangements of jazz classics and deep cuts including swing, ballads, funk, Bossa-Nova, and Afro-Cuban. They have been featured in live performances on KUVO jazz radio, were awarded a Pathways To Jazz grant to record a recently released CD, have performed at Denver's Five Point Jazz Festival, and members have been featured on KUVO's Local Musician Spotlight.
Heidi Schmidt is one of Colorado’s finest jazz singers who honors the tradition of jazz styling and phrasing with a great range and soulful expression. She has danced with gypsies, shared coffee with Bedouins, sipped tea in the House of Lords, sung jazz for Transylvanian Franciscan monks – her delivery is shaped by rich experience. Heidi launched her professional singing career in Eastern Europe, refined it touring throughout Western Europe, and produced three albums while living in Romania. Now back in hometown Denver, Heidi has won numerous awards and earned a following on the local jazz scene, singing with the Colorado Jazz Repertory Orchestra, the Nice Work Jazz Combo and other ensembles throughout the state.
