Welcome to a new edition of the Neon Jazz interview series with New York Jazz Vocalist John Dokes .. We caught up with him to discuss his new 2024 CD New Day. With inspiration from his stylistic ancestors Nat King Cole and Joe Williams, he brings new life to the deep-souled world of baritone jazz vocals. He is backed by New York-based George Gee Swing Orchestra where here launched his career as a vocalist. Key to the album’s success is the arranging of Gee’s musical director trombonist David Gibson. In delivering a distinctive post-pandemic outing of classic songs embodied with hopeful passion, he again puts out material that will make you move. We also get into his career and the future ahead. Dig this interview.
