“Grace Kelly has an electric charisma onstage that instantly ignites the room” – Jon Batiste
An unequivocal musical prodigy, singer-saxophonist-songwriter-composer and band leader Grace Kelly has rocked the jazz world with sold-out concerts, 14 acclaimed albums and a resume that includes performing at the Hollywood Bowl as well as being part of the house band for “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” – all before reaching her mid-twenties. As of Oct 2022 she has become the youngest member of the Board of Trustees of Berklee College of Music.
Since the early days of Grace Kelly’s career, which included a performance at President Barack Obama’s 2009 inauguration at age 16, the singer-saxophonist-songwriter-composer and band leader has played more than 1,000 shows as bandleader in 35 countries and collaborated with renowned artists including Lin Manuel-Miranda, Dave Brubeck, Harry Connick Jr., Gloria Estefan, Questlove and Wynton Marsalis.
Kelly’s state-of-the-art brand of electro jazz-pop and inventive digital content place her at the forefront of the fusion scene alongside names like Snarky Puppy, Jacob Collier, Cory Henry, Robert Glasper, Jon Batiste and Too Many Zooz. She has won multiple ASCAP Composer Awards, Boston Music Awards and International Songwriting Awards, as well as “Song of the Year” for her single “Feels Like Home” in the 2018 John Lennon Songwriting Contest. She has also appeared as a featured performer in films and television, including acclaimed documentary “Sound of Redemption: The Frank Morgan Story,” Amazon’s Emmy-nominated original series “Bosch” and featured in the 2017 Emmy-winning Yamaha production “The Right Note.”
“Grace Kelly’s songwriting is as amazing as her voice.” – Aloe Blacc (Chart- topping Singer/Songwriter/Producer)
Note: For some concerts, the window behind the stage may need to be covered for acoustical purposes. We do not always know which artists will need the window closed, but at a certain level of amplification, it is necessary.
