  • The Pace Report: "The Joy of Samara" The Samara Joy Interview
    Welcome to another edition of The Pace Report featuring jazz vocalist Samara Joy.
    The Bronx, New York native has taken the jazz world by storm. Samara's self-titled debut album(Whirlwind Records) is on heavy rotation on jazz radio all over the world and features the Pasquale Grasso Trio. She brings a new and fresh and exciting take on songs of the great American songbook with standards like "Moonglow," "Stardust," and "Everything Happens To Me."
    Samara attended Fordham High School of the Arts in the Bronx and recently graduated from CUNY Purchase where she studied under the great Kenny Washington and Jon Faddis. In 2019 she won the prestigious Sarah Vaughn Vocal Competition where she gained the attention of famed record producer, Matt Pierson. At 22 years young, Samara's performed with the likes of Cyrus Chestnut, Kirk Lightest, Christian McBride, Emmet Cohen, and Christian McBride;.
    I recently sat down with Samara during her performance at the famed Dizzy's in New York City.
    For more info on Samara's upcoming tour dates or to order her debut album please visit her online at www.SamaraJoy.com or Facebook.com/SamaraJoyMcLendon

    It's great to have the stylings of Nat King Cole, Ella, Louis, Billie and Nina in a new voice. As her voice matures .... wow what a gift for us.

    Jazz has a language of its own and Samara has mastered it at such a young age. I feel that she was born to sing jazz and standards

    How wonderful and reassuring it is to know that not only is JAZZ alive and well but going strong and it’s future showing great promise in the hands of this NEW GENERATION of JAZZ GREATS like SAMARA JOY. I look forward to following the future of Miss JOY and the future of the JAZZ WORLD with her in it. I am hopeful that she and others as gifted will continue to pay homage to the stylings of our JAZZ greats while breathing into it their new energy and their own unique offerings. Carry on Miss SAMARA JOY and thank you in advance. I will keep a lookout for you on our WEST COAST. Continued blessings, continued success!!

    A wonderful and timeous interview that captures the words of a phenomenon who is much larger than the sum of her parts. Samara Joy is an unbelievable vessel of breathless beauty and art who’s restoring hope in the universe. For sure, she’s also the personification of her name, that’s Mizz Joy. May she continue to thrive as we bask in the glory of THAT voice.

    She brings back the good old days of big band music of Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett, Ella Fitzgerald and Billie Holiday era. She's like the reincarnation of a long lost jazz singer of the 60s

    What a lovely conversation! I appreciate the interspersion of performance clips throughout the interview rather than a block of talking followed by a block of concert segments. This is my first time visiting your channel, so I didn't know what to expect. Lemme just say, your interviewing style leaves room for the guest to think and provide insightful responses. Not to mention, you seem to put the interviewee at ease.
    Samara Joy has such a warm presence, and her voice is simply honey🍯. I was excited to learn Samara's singing inspirations are Ms.Vaughn and Ms.Fitzgerald! You can definitely hear their influence in her phrasing and tone. (I'm not familiar w/ Ms. McRae, so I'll have to give her a listen.) It's wonderful to see my generation take an interest in Jazz and keeping the genre alive!

    So good to see a young singer into real music, and not this cookie cutter auto-tune assembly line crap nowadays. I hope she comes to France where she'll be really appreciated.
