THE JEREMIAH SHOW Featuring Stacey Kent, GRAMMY® nominated jazz vocalist

This interview was recorded in the Spring of 2021. COVID restrictions had lifted slightly, and Stacey couldn't wait to perform in front of audiences again. She was beginning a tour to support her new album, SONGS FROM OTHER PLACES, a voice and piano duets collection.

Traveling with Stacey on this musical journey was her dear friend, pianist Art Hirahara.

Stacey was in a hotel room in New York City, and we talked on and off the mic/camera for nearly two hours. It was one of the best conversations I've had with such an established, well-known musician. Easy, relaxed, and an honest conversation. I became an even bigger fan of Stacey's.

Stacey Kent has a legion of fans worldwide, a host of honors and awards, including a GRAMMY® nomination, album sales in excess of 2 million, and Platinum, Double-Gold, and Gold-selling albums that have reached a series of No. 1 chart positions during her career.

Throughout 2020-2021, with her concert appearances on pause, Stacey remained busy recording from home and staying in touch with her fans through social media. She released several recordings, including Bob Marley’s Three Little Birds, Bill Wither’s Lovely Day, and the EP, Christmas In The Rockies (Token 2020). Songs From Other Places was also produced during this time, and its mood of quiet contemplation reflects the circumstances of its making. 

CURRENT DAY:

Stacey’s new studio album, Summer Me, Winter Me, was released in Nov 2023 on Naïve Records. A collection of requests from her as yet unrecorded concert repertoire, Summer Me, Winter Me, entered the French jazz charts at number 1 and has quickly established itself as a new highlight in her discography.
