Sultry and sublime, Andrea Superstein embodies smoky blues and sassy swing, guiding you through a fantastical world of dimly-lit speakeasies and lavish nightclubs. Her sound is both hauntingly familiar yet compellingly new. She's Sarah Vaughan meets Blossom Dearie meets your favourite martini. It's no wonder they call her Super.
Super's debut at the 2010 Vancouver International Jazz Festival was met with great acclaim and a Galaxie Award nomination for emerging talent. Three standing room only performances had fans mesmerized with her take on the standards and her edgy rendition of Radiohead's Karma Police brought the house down. Her first album "One Night", recently released, is a triumph.
Her blend of musicianship and performance sets her apart from her contemporaries. Hailing from Montreal, Super now calls Vancouver her home and spins melodies that are rooted deeply in her experiences of these cities. Super's soulful style combines a masterful blend of jazz, Latin and blues.
Although on the scene for but a short while, Super has already had the pleasure of studying with legends Nancy King and Kate Hammett-Vaughn as well as new generation jazz superstars Sara Gazarek, Sachal Vasandani and Gretchen Parlato.
