Audrey Silver Email & Phone Number

With a growing catalog of outstanding recordings and a warm, swinging performing style, Audrey Silver is one of the most elegantly creative singers in jazz today. Known for what Hot House Jazz has called “extraordinary artistry” and “a velvet-laden timbre with impeccable phrasing,” Audrey has more recently become known for her compelling takes on well-known pop tunes and her own poignant originals. In the meantime, she honed her craft through private study with singers Shelia Jordan and Mark Murphy, that latter who eloquently described her voice as having “that rare quality of light infectious swing that lights up her tall willowy persona.” Audrey has built a respected and successful career by performing at an array of New York’s best-known jazz clubs and music venues including Zinc Bar, Jazz at Kitano, 55 Bar, & the Cornelia Street Cafe. Nationally, Audrey performed at large festivals and venues around the country including the Tanglewood Jazz Festival and the JVC Jazz Festival. She was a semi-finalist in the 2016 edition of the international Songwriting Competition. Receiving high praise from the jazz press, JazzTimes.com noted that “Her clarity and enunciation is on par with the great Jo Stafford and her breath control— a talent so often, and so wrongfully, overlooked— rivals Sinatra’s.” The same website reinforced a comparison she has heard numerous: “Not since Karen Carpenter have I heard such a strong alto voice that is so pure and so convincing.” Crediting musical luminaries as diverse as Bill Evans, Annie Lennox and Arnold Schoenberg as influences on her artistry, Audrey has found new challenges and satisfaction in becoming a songwriter and looks forward to sharing more of her music with her audiences in the coming years.
