I'd Like to Invite Ya to Have a Read About My Friend, Pamela York....

Jazz composer/pianist/singer Pamela York

The Top Five Reasons Pamela York is the Coolest Jazz Pianist 

  1. she was named a finalist at the Mary Lou Williams Women in Jazz competition at the Kennedy Center
  2. she won the Great American Jazz Piano competition in Jacksonville, Fla., landing her a performance slot at the Jacksonville Jazz Festival alongside George Benson and Diane Schuur.
  3. her style ranges from hard swinging, blues-based tunes to intimate, understated ballads.
  4. "Expanding the jazz tradition by adding her own personal voice and coming up with fresh ways to swing..." - Scott Yanow (All Music Guide to Jazz)
  5. "I was blown away when hearing this cd. It is a must for piano jazz lovers." - Dawn Mason
  6. "...when I went to your "friend's" site and listened to her version of "A Motherless Child" I thought to myself, "whoa, what's going on here?" Int his crazy wonderful world we live in talent abides in the most amazing places to be sure, but this is ridiculous! You have a friend who has survived the test of time, born with an old soul connected to the jazz doctors and kahoonas of the "BEGINNING" and here she plays, caught in our world, breathing and living among us in TEXAS...God has blessed her with a joie di vivre, talent, intelligence and savvy strut which has such a groove my skin tingled and I wanted to call Ray Brown down from the Big Gig and get Bird, Diz, Sarah and Al Haig, might as well put Milt Jackson on the vibes and Kenny Clarke on the drums because Al HAIG can sit out and take a bow to her...." - Lady Haig
