Karrin Allyson born in 1963 Kansas is an American jazz vocalist. She has been nominated for five Grammy Awards, and has received positive reviews from several prominent sources, including the New York Times, which has called her a "singer with a feline touch and impeccable intonation." We appreciate the precious support of the US Embassy and Turmaks in Ankara for their support in providing this opportunity for us.
In her youth she studied classical piano, sang at her local church and in musical theatre, and also began songwriting. In 1992 where her jazz career took off, she recorded her debut album, I Didn't Know About You, which was so well received it was re-released on Concord Records. Allyson sings in English, French, Portuguese, Italian, and Spanish. The songs she performs are drawn from a variety of genres, including bossa nova, blues, bebop, samba, jazz standards, and other jazz modalities, and also ballads, pop standards, the Great American Songbook, soft rock, and folk rock. Five of Allyson's albums have received Grammy nominations for Best Jazz Vocal Album. Allyson tours extensively, both in the United States and internationally.
