Current Women In Jazz : Underappreciated

Mary Halvorson

Yes, but Nancy Wilson was never unappreciated.

AMEN .

Nancy Wilson (R.I.P.)

I've been enjoying Natalia M. King's "Bluzzin Til Dawn" on Challenge Records. It's recorded very well, too.

So many great suggestions. Many of which I've enjoyed for a while.....Connie Evingson, Hilary Kole, Karen Souza, Karrin Allyson, Rene Marie and Lindsey Webster.....the rest I look forward to checking out!

Here some I really enjoy......

Cecile McClorin Salvant, especially Dreams and Daggers
Judith Owen

Roxy Coss. She plays sax, and is no lightweight. This is refreshing to see. 

I like Connie Han although I'm not sure she's underappreciated but she is only 22.

Another vote for Connie Evingson

Check out Terez Montcalm's version of "The Great City"

I really like Karrin Allyson's "In Blue" album.

Connie Evingson rung my bell.

^^^ Mental ... 

Thanks for recommending Karen Souza. I checked it out on Spotify .... and then went to Ebay and ordered it.

Karen Souza - The Complete Collection

One of the members turned me onto this, I keep coming back to it. Excellent recording.

Sunny Crownover. Jazz and blues.

Saw both of these women in Dayton Ohio over the last few years.

Check out Lindsey Webster https://youtu.be/spk2ETPn4D8  and

Hilary Kole https://youtu.be/vs0p21wJxws

Rene Marie

Julia Fordham should be on the list.

Just getting into the female jazz thing, prob dozen albums the last couple of months that other members recommended. They have been a very worthwhile listen. When the entire album keeps my attention, that's a keeper.
