Yoko Noge Jazz Me Blues Band


  • July 7th 2008
    Monday, 9:00 PM

Event Detail
"If some artists fall into predictable routines with the passing years, others revitalize themselves, as is the case of the remarkable Yoko Noge.

...during the past couple of years she has achieved a new intensity as singer, pianist and songwriter. If she once delivered a routine impersonation of Chicago blues, she now offers a fascinating synthesis of cunning jazz improvisation, bona fide blues exhortation and the cultural rituals of her Japanese origins.

Crying out at the highest register of her range or murmuring softly down below, her vocals defy categorization. And her pianism, by turns thunderous and insinuating, jazzy and neo-classical, provides evocative accompaniment. That Noge typically shares the stage with some of Chicago's best improvising instrumentalists, including bassist Tatsu Aoki and trombonist John Watson, only adds to the allure of this ongoing engagement.

Long may she swing."
