- JULY 25: Samara Joy featuring the Pasquale Grasso Trio
Samara Joy - voice, Pasquale Grasso - guitar, Ari Roland - bass, Keith Balla - drums
Samara Joy is one of the more imposing young singers working in jazz. She’s from a gospel family; her first exposure to jazz was at Fordham High School for the Arts, and a short time later she became the Ella Fitzgerald Scholar and in 2019 she won the Sarah Vaughan International Vocal Competition. Samara will be joined by a trio led 30 year old Pasquale Grasso, a budding star from the world of solo guitar. “It’s great working with him because I know he brings his best, which pushes me to bring my A-game - nothing less.” Don’t miss these two rising stars perform at Duck Creek.

Samara Joy is God’s answer to those wonderful jazz vocalist of yesterday… Ella, Sarah, etc! She will be with us along, long time! ❤️❤️❤️
This is a BEAUTIFUL comment thank you for those graceful words
Agree! She is the embodiment of those Jazz icons, gifted, talented, and chosen to carry that iconic and unique legacy into the 21st century.
Yessss!!!
Absolutely! I feel that I am suddenly 50 years younger. Her voice is beautiful and like butter and takes me back to all of those great singers.

She have a beautiful voice I saw her in Charleston S C I was a little disappointed that she didn't sing many of the oldies I know she is promoting her albums however us older ones would like to more of the music of those she is modeling
Oh wow, she shapes the sounds like Sara Vaughn. Let there be love in all the right places!
I am just from saying this! She reminds me of Sarah Vaughn!!
I played a song of hers for my 92 year old dad and he immediately said she sounds like Sarah Vaughn. ❤️
Her flawless vocals accompanied with a Fantastic Trio. With the wonderful lead guitarist! Absolutely Outstanding.
Great to see younger musicians still burning the flame.
She is indeed flawless. A little of Ella n a little of Sarah Vaughn. She's just going to get even better. Can't wait to hear more!
The longer I watch, the more joy this brings me! I have been a jazz lover for most all my life of 67 years and I have been quite fortunate to see a whole lot of legendary people in my life. I love music and musicians, but it would be fair to say that I am not easily impressed. I am an hour in and grinning ear to ear!
Truly a talented group here :)
Try 76
Agree. 😄 This truly was a wonderful performance. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Thanks!
@@qbavid3684 Your welcome!
Untitled tune sounds like Stompin at the Savoy
The sound engineer is also beyond gifted and amazing.
Also the vídeo...
Also the interior decorator, and the architect
I am just now discovering Ms. Samaras Joy. What a treasure!
This young and supremely talented young lady brings me joy! Samara Joy is exquisite! A Superstar - pulled right out of time travel. I heard just one note and melted on my sofa while watching her on the Today Show recently. I immediately went to see her perform at Birdland, NYC. She sounds as if velvet could taste buttery sweet with of hint of aged Bourbon. Much continued success! The musicians are top notch and just as velvety smooth!🔥🎤🎶
Oh my lord, a lot of singers profess to be jazz vocalists but they are not. This beautiful young woman is! And a damn good one at that. She is also lovely❤️
It's like listening to Nancy Wilson. She is a massive talent with very mature and enjoyable vocals.
One word: BREATHTAKING
I saw Samara with Pasquale, bassist Mathias Allamane and drummer Alberto Chiozzi at Ronnie Scott's in November 2021 as part of their European tour, a couple of weeks before her 22nd birthday.
I told her then that I had seen Dee Dee Bridgewater at a similar age back in 1973, and my opinion holds that Samara will become as great a jazz name as DD, Sarah, Ella and similar greats. She is in my view the best jazz singer of her (young) generation and the best new voice since Roberta Gambarini.
Samara is a great voice and a charming personality in live performance. Love this concert.
PHENOMENAL ❤ Her smooth silky voice and his guitar playing makes Great Music together❤❤
Samara Joy ---- Wow, she's just outstanding and so much fun! She has had some great instruction and she's smart but she also has those things you JUST CAN'T TEACH. She's GOT IT and we are so lucky! ....by the way, how many millions of songs does this angel know, anyway?
I would guess she knows a few hundred songs 😊
Awesome, Awesome, Awesome! Her voice is silky, smooth, and sultry. She is giving jazz a push off the back burner on to front and center stage. We are grateful to witness Samara’s unique musical gift.
Pasquale is probably the best jazz bebop oriente guitarist in history, just mind blowing!
I'm stealing a comment from another video, " Samara enjoys singing rather than being a singer". Beautiful ❤️
The Bassist is Beast 🤟🔥
His bowed solo, eights, and fours on the first tune!
No doubt! Gut strings, no amp, arco solos.🤩
My father was born in 1919 and had me in 1971 I grew up with Jazz all my life and Samara is such a joy to listen to! I cant wait to see her live! 🤩😍🥰
This girl is absolutely wonderful. The best vocalist to come along in a long long time. My new favorite singer.❤
Every member of this quartet impresses me! Pasquale will be a guitarist of note in Jazz for a long time, Samara is the rebirth of Sarah and Ella, I love Ari's energy and creativity, Keith is the definition of a drummer who knows what to do and when to do it with unfailing taste and swing... REALLY IMPRESSIVE and I have seen a little bit in my life.
She is amazing! She is the reincarnation of Sarah Vaughan! Simply excellent!
Right you are, but but as for me Sarah Vaughan has more expression and emphasis in her phrasing. Nevertheless, Samantha is gorgeous, just honey for the ears. Her interpretation acts on me as a soft relaxant.
@@rummi72 ...her name is Samara.
...and why compare? She is herself.And she is and sounds wonderful.
I hear a little bit of Ella in her!! OMG. She sweetly commands the audience with her voice. Samara understands the assignment! This whole band done tipped me over with a feather. ❤
the entire group is pretty amazing, but i have to imagine that this is what it was for folks when they saw a young Sarah Vaughn or Ella Fitzgerald back in the 40s and 50s...its 2023 now-she is now 24yrs old...at the time of this video she was 20yrs old...and every time i see one of her vids from 2, 3, 4 years ago...i am simply stunned at her vocal skill at such a young age. Simply Amazing!!!!
My my!!! What a pleasure to hear this type of artistry! Go Samara...what's for you is for you! And, yes...that trio is 🔥
Samara is a JOY to listen to.
I love how when someone in the audience sneezed she worked a "Bless you" into the song. It was so smooth and subtle. I almost thought it was part of the song. Such a professional. 28:12
She is heading into the category of all time greats. I can't recollect a voice and ability to match hers in the last 50 years. I would love to see her live.
Pues vete a verla a Santander, España, en los primeros días de agosto 2023. Ella con Grasso y no sé si otros músicos. La ciudad te va a gustar también.
Saludos.
Well, at this level why should we need comparisons? But Sarah Vaughan was per sheer vocal quality the greatest.
I’ll reply to myself. Samara is exquisite. Those feathery vibratos all up and down her vocal column. Like Sarah Vaughan she could easily have chosen opera. Jazz aficionados’ great good fortune!
Add another huge fan of this unlimited talent! Her vocal control is superb ❤️❤️❤️
Magnificent quartet, beautiful voice. I love them. Thank you so much.
What a deep talent she is, and the band sounds and looks like they are with every note. Fantastic art here folks! Jazz, musical artistry, poetry, athleticism, and humanity for us, how fortunate
Yes
And now she is a two time Grammy winner. 🤗
No matter how marvelous instrumental musicians are in their own right, when performing with a person of supreme vocal talent, they are awestruck. Ms. Joy’s shimmering “Stardust” is transcendent, and the appreciation in eyes of the drummer and bassist are unmistakable.
Pure class, jazz perfection. Sensational playing and singing, thank you so much to Samara and the trio! Can't wait to see you live! ❤❤
Damn. . . she's perfect. Channels the greats while being 100% original. I don't know how she does it. Charming as hell too. @samarajoy6551
A legend in the making
It’s great to see a singer who can really sing and musicians who really master their instruments. It’s aJoy listening to and watching them.
Nice to see a guitarist who doesn't need a dozen pedals to play. Guitar and amp!!!
A highly trained musician, not a fake,so refreshing to hear.
Even when Samara Joy speaks, it sounds like she's singing.
Kudos to the engineer who did a remarkable job capturing this concert.
Grasso's guitar reminds of the late great René Thomas. Bass-player's fiddlestick is a blessing. Perfect drum part completes outstanding accompaniment of radiant new voice in jazz, somehow related to Cleo Laine. Love it.
I can only say “WOW”!! Beautiful voice with angelic tones of Ella Fitzgerald and Carmen McRae. Great trio! Ms. Joy can’t wait to attend your concerts!
Hearing her convinces me that classy jazz singing is being revived. This is REAL singing and playing.
I’m shocked , out of my mind-never listening something better than this- the trio and girl - down on my knees
This concert is pure perfection! You are all extremely wonderful.
This was over a year ago! And now she’s a Grammy Award Winner ! Fabulous
Los fieles melómanos pedían a Dios que enviará a este mundo una nueva Ella Fitzgerald, pero única e irrepetible. Envío a Samara Joy
Best voice in jazz I’ve heard since Cassandra Wilson.
Her voice is up there with Ella, Carmen McCrae and even Billy Holiday. Amazing.
@@HolyRollerTV I don't see any problem as long as she doesn't fuck herself up with drugs and unhealthy relationships. It's a new generation of coloured female musicians; more self-esteem and less loaded with the past of their enslaved ancestors.
YES !!!!!!!!❤️
Yes. Samara is in that profound class. 💯 Looking forward to her success. 😁
@@gabrieleschulze7627 Nothing like a word of positivity. 🤦 You're clearly more dialed into stereotypes than she is.
@@gabrieleschulze7627 Your whole take is trashy and inappropriate. Remove this bile from an otherwise beautiful comment section.
When the bassist's bow came out I was like "well, here we go!"
Wow. Stardust is other-worldly.
Blown away by the Trio and Ms. Joy!
Hi Samara. MY MOM WAS A SINGER IN THE 40'S.She quit HS and traveled with an all male band,made records and grew up in the Bronx. She sang Embracable you. You truly are a gift.
Pasquale is Luigi's brother , very very talented saxophonist . Congratulations to their parents .
Love Samara Joy!!!!!! Jazz still lives!!!
Grammy coming up! Nominations in! ❤
She is such a joy to listen and be blessed by her gift. 🎶❤️ She is absolutely incredible!! Thank you for gracing us with this amazing gift of song 🎵🎤🎵❤️❤️💎 To all of you!! The band🥁🎸🎻Thank you and 👏 Bravo!!!
Oh my god .thank you samara and pasquale for bringing the old days .you sounded like ella and Barney kessel .much love for you .this is awsome
Long time since I heard a true jazz vocalist! She is a reborn star of a reborn age. The guitar is supreme, has a virtuoso touch and harmony depth like no other.
I was closing my eyes while listening to this wonderful band and the vocalist carrying me away with her beautiful melodic voice they all compliment one another extremely well. It's good to see the young getting into jazz. I'm happy and impressed.
I hope this young lady gets exposed to the young people...because if she does I think young people will begin to appreciate Jazz as did that older audience (and I do put myself -at 66- in that 'older audience').
@@davidcollier7632 I totally agree with you and I'm also at 66.
@@davidcollier7632 me 3 at 62!
The best. What a talent.
When she said bless you mid song☺️☺️☺️gotta love a live performance, she is a true delight and her voice is impeccable❤
Samara Joy, does not disappoint again, flawless, powerful and moving vocals with great backing. Thank you!
sing honey! sannnggggggg I love it! lovely voice, tight band, great music!
Heaven! She's Great and the trio is so Wonderful!
Samara's lyrics are also pretty darn fantastic. Wonderful singing and playing; thanks.
Gesundheit!
Samara - amazing - Pasquale and cats - brilliant!
I recently got to hear her in Ann Arbor and what an experience! She doesn’t just sing the music, the way she phrases the lyrics let’s us understand the song. And she always has excellent musicians playing with her.
La plus belle voix entendue depuis longtemps. Super quatuor
It has been a long while since ive enjoyed any music this much. Thank you so much. I wish everyone a joyful life.
Samara is a real gem! Sure she's gonna be a first class jazz star!
She is.
@@iriexela You are quite right! And she is going to be a new Ella in no time!
@@user-not-foe She's really good but that's still a reach now c'mon. I hope she proves me wrong though
@@Jeremy73950 Hope so as well!
@@Jeremy73950 I hear the voice and intonations of Great Ella in her voice. Hope she will be a true impersonation of the Lady.
Incredible Quartet: Samara is a very young and promising jazz singer; The rhythmic section lead by Pasquale Grasso is also terrific.
I saw him playing with another genius of the piano, Rossano Sportiello.. Ari Roland - bass and Keith Balla - drums are so talented and supportive in the groove.
I think she is Brilliant with her styling of a song. She has her own style and doesn't try to sound like anyone else. Absolutely Beautiful and I Love listening to her. I am a Big Fan of Ms. Samara 😊 ❤️
Some names---Carmen MacRae, Cassandra Wilson, Rebecca Parris. If you really think she doesn't sound like anyone else, I suggest you give these greats another listen.
@@Froster1 How could you forget Ella Fitzgerald and Sarah Vaughn??
@@tblack9711 I haven't. (And neither, evidently, has this young singer).
her voice is something out of this world, remind me ella fitzgerald, sometimes sarah vaughan, sometimes Carmen McCrae
Wild arco on that bass fiddle!
Absolute amazing!!!! I've seen the concerts in Umbria Jazz this year in Italy and I had a very good impression and good feelings. Thanks Samara and Pasquale and all musicians.
Great trio! Samara has great tone, range and phrasing. A young Ella with immense talent! I am a seasoned jazz guitarist - Pasquale is one of this generation's "greats" with superb dexterity, comping and soloing skils. Greetings from London, Canada.
Amazingly brilliant wonderful voice and musical feel .Another beautiful performance of jazz classic.Wonderful trio.great lead guitarist!!
Sublime voice! Love that Navarro piece, and a wonderful trio supporting her! Looking forward to watching her development, she's got an extraordinary instrument!
Samara Joy's voice is "Smooth-as-Silk Sarah". And that guitarist can play anything. I listened from beginning to end!
C'MON... FLAWLESS
Delightful!!!
I like the dress code of jazz trios!
Samara Joy, come to San Francisco. We would love to hear you in person. And bring the superb Pasquale Grasso Trio with you.
Excellent group, enhanced by the voice of Samara Joy! I loved!
Samara Joy 😍
Maravelous sound of this french guitar made in Uzes, south of France, by the luthier Trenier?
Fantastic but expensive !!!!
The music cannot get any better than this. It is to the max. All are so talented!
In years to come, the people who were at this concert will be able to look back and reflect on the time they saw these jazz greats in a small setting before they were added to the jazz pantheon.
What a joy, what a find.
Mamma mia! Fantastico spectacolo. Grazie a tutti.
That guitar solo is as smooth as it ever can get...!!!
Straight to the play list...
Just AMAZING... I have no other words!
If Samara keeps this up she'll soon be in the Cecile McLorin Salvant and Jazzmeia Horn league. Her timbre is the most intriguing I've heard in 40 years. Three different young women, three very different styles. Jazz vocals are in good hands these days. Meanwhile Pasquale Grasso is okay. He's only the best jazz guitarist I've heard since Peter Bernstein broke onto the jazz scene. Personally, I'll take Pasquale. Sublime.
Killing it young Lady! Keep it up!!!
She reminds me of Sarah. This young lady has it; that special vocal talent. The band is exceptional.
What a talent she is!
What can i say?? She is fantastic!! The best jazz singer in nowadays!!❤
Top musicians also!!
Oh My She Is Lovely
That Gorgeous Velvet Voice
Absolutely outstanding!
