From Jazz Right Now:
Vocalist Fay Victor has been at the center of a number of interesting and innovative musical groups since returning to New York City in 2003. Her longstanding Fay Victor Ensemble has released a series of acclaimed albums, most recently Absinthe & Vermouth (2013). Her previous release, Freesong Suite (2009), remains one of the most forward-looking vocal albums of the past decade, combining her rich vocal work with abstract ideas grounded within a rare aesthetic palette.
Victor is also quite effective in the duo setting. Her longest-standing association is with guitarist Anders Nilsson. Victor is also constantly breaking ground with new musicians, such as her duo with guitarist Brandon Seabrook which is performing for the first time this month.
