Libby York is a jazz singer renowned for her deep connection to the lyrics she sings and her subtle improvisations on melodies. She does not rely on vocal pyrotechnics to engage her audience, instead opting for a more intimate approach that makes each song feel like a personal story. York’s cool style is reminiscent of past legends like Peggy Lee and June Christy, but her conversational style, hip phrasing, superb sense of time, and deep connection to a song’s lyrics demonstrate that the art of masterful storytelling is alive and well in the 21st century.
