Sarah Stevenson Quartet

Event Description

Join 2x Downbeat award-winning jazz vocalist Sarah Stevenson for her classic jazz night at Hermann's Jazz Club!

At just 19 years old, Stevenson's musical prowess transcends her age. With a background competing nationally and internationally with the Wellington Secondary Jazz Academy, she won the vocal sweepstakes at the Lionel Hampton Jazz Festival in Moscow, Idaho, and became the first vocalist in the National Youth Jazz Combo in 2023.

Now studying jazz voice at McGill University, Stevenson has seamlessly integrated into Montreal's vibrant jazz scene. She's graced renowned venues such as Upstairs Jazz Club and Maison De La Culture, and holds a residency at Barbossa, a popular jam spot for Montreal's jazz aficionados.

Drawing inspiration from jazz icons like Sarah Vaughan, Carmen McRae, and Ella Fitzgerald, Stevenson delivers classic jazz with soulful vocals and horn-like improvisation. Accompanied by her McGill jazz peers and friends, Thomas Andersen on piano, Matisse Gubby-Hurtig on bass, and Ryan Bennett on drums, this promises to be an unforgettable evening of music.
