About The Event
Defying genre and classification and yet fully embracing all musical styles, Heather is an artist who speaks the language of music.
Ken Kresge:
Jazz pianist/vocalist, Ken Kresge, has performed for live audiences around the world and was the winner of the 1993 Ohio Michelob Jazz Search. As a solo performer, he plays and sings selections from the American Jazz Songbook but doesn’t just stop there. His clever arrangements and interesting patter make for an enjoyable and entertaining presentation for a variety of audiences.
The Heather Pierson Jazz Trio:
Based in New Hampshire's Mount Washington Valley, Heather is a pianist, singer/songwriter, and performer, known for her bell tone vocals, equal parts New Orleans-Oscar-Brubeck jazz piano leanings. In addition to her touring schedule with the Heather Pierson Acoustic Trio, Heather also leads her own jazz trio, with Shawn Nadeau on bass and Craig Bryan on drums, performing for audiences all over the Northeast. The jazz trio performs a rich variety of Heather's originals, jazz and blues standards, and unique reworkings of familiar American music. The three are best known for their annual Charlie Brown Christmas tour, wherein they present their interpretations of the work of the late great jazz pianist and composer Vince Guaraldi.
