Quiana Lynell and the Lush Life

A Sleeper Family Trust Supported Performance
Prior to winning the Sarah Vaughan Competition Lynell could frequently be found with a four-piece rhythm section and at least a horn or two. Due to the demands of an emerging career Lynell chose to streamline the band and record with a quartet, always knowing the “big band” would return. The time has come and The Lush Life is set to bring the New Orleans funk, groove, and soul to hearts and ears worldwide. Lynell has taken tracks from A Little Love and reimagined them to highlight the new ensemble, utilizing the communicative nature of New Orleans inspired Rhythm and Blues, shout choruses and vamps that keep the audience entranced within the soul of the music. Working with Daniel Meinecke her long time accompanist and arranger, the show is infused with standards, originals, and classic soul, that as always shares the message of love and undying hope in the goodness within. The return of the Lush Life a tradition of New Orleans music that is fun, inspiring, and top tier.
