CSMA Welcomes Tiffany Austin, October 20

Community School of Music and Arts Presents
Tiffany Austin, October 20
 
MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA – The Community School of Music and Arts (CSMA) in Mountain View presents a free concert with jazz vocalist Tiffany Austin on Saturday, October 20 at 7:30pm. The performance will be held in Tateuchi Hall at the Community School of Music and Arts, located at 230 San Antonio Circle in Mountain View. This concert is free and open to the public. Seating is limited; please arrive early. Doors open at 7:00pm.
 
Bay Area jazz vocalist Tiffany Austin will perform blues, soul and swing music, including selections from her recent release, “Unbroken.” Austin appeared on the national scene in 2015 with the release of “Nothing But Soul”, one of the decade’s most widely hailed debut albums. The fact that she’d just graduated from the UC Berkeley School of Law made her emergence that much more spectacular. With her second album, “Unbroken” she stakes a claim as a formidable songwriter and intrepid musical explorer. The album received four stars from Downbeat Magazine, five stars from All About Jazz, and reached #16 on the Jazz Week chart.
 
“Unbroken” is a timeless meditation on African-American culture’s extraordinary resilience, with a soul-steeped affirmation that embraces blues and swing, spirituals and R&B, bebop, post-bop, and her own Louisiana Creole heritage. Produced by Grammy Award-winning jazz champion Richard Seidel, the album features a stellar cast of jazz veterans, including pianist Cyrus Chestnut, bassist Rodney Whitaker, and drummer Carl Allen.
 
This event is part of CSMA’s 2018-2019 Community Concert Series. In keeping with CSMA’s mission to provide Arts for All, Community Concerts are free and open to the public.
