Jazz as you’ve never heard it before – through original songs and well known classics, Ali reveals the magic and the music of the human spirit, inspiring us to embrace the life we all share, a life where we can “Be Anything.”
Accompanied by Wells Hanley (piano), Randall Pharr (bass), and Brian Caputo (drums), Ali displays to the audience how jazz and life intersect, how music tells the stories most fundamental and important to us as human beings. Through self-effacing humor, Ali recounts hilarious anecdotes from her life, including snarky grocery store clerks and bad boyfriends, and even sings her original song called “SPAM”, which traces her family’s lineage.
Ali’s repertoire, originals as well as songs from the 1920s through the 1960s, demonstrates her vocal and emotional range and the adept musical skills of her fellow performers. Each song is delivered with the joy and improvisational spirit characteristic of jazz. Ali also shares with us her personal relationship to many of these songs and how they help her understand past events and embrace life with bravery and honesty.
