Jazz Standard welcomes back Duchess, whose flawless harmonies, effervescent swing and on–stage wit have graced our stage on multiple occasions. Amy Cervini, Hilary Gardner and Melissa Stylianou made their disc debut in February 2015 with the eponymous CD Duchess and followed by the critically lauded “Laughing at Life", produced by arranger Oded Lev–Ari and released by Anzic Records. They soon found themselves appearing at major jazz festivals from Monterey to Toronto, and collaborating with other jazz leaders like Christian McBride, Kat Edmonson, and Wycliff Gordon. A vocal trio in the great tradition of the Boswell Sisters, Duchess has forged a repu­tation for providing tight harmonies and big fun at their shows – and they’ll be recording live during this special engagement. Make your reservations now! “This fresh-faced triumvirate plays it straight from the heart, leaving any trace of camp or postmodern irony at the door.” (The New Yorker) Amy Cervini – voice  Hilary Gardner – voice  Melissa Stylianou – voice Michael Cabe – piano  Jesse Lewis – guitar  Matt Aronoff – bass Jared Schonig – drums
