Segerstrom Center for the Arts presents rising jazz vocalist Samara Joy, in two performances, 7:00 pm and 9:00 pm on Saturday, October 1, 2022, at the Samueli Theater, as part of their Jazz series for the 2022/2023 season.

With her Verve Records debut, Linger Awhile, 22-year-old Samara Joy makes her case to join the likes of Sarah, Ella, and Billie and the next monomymous jazz singing sensation recorded by the venerable label. Now, she is making her Jazz series debut at the Samueli Theater.

"Listening to Samara Joy, I'm struck by the sound of her voice-warm, grounded and sturdy, an impression reinforced by her sure sense of pitch. But her understated, swingy rhythm can feel lighter than air." -NPR

After winning the 2019 Sarah Vaughan International Jazz Vocal Competition, Samara released her self-titled debut that was immediately met with glowing reviews. Samara Joy has already performed throughout the U.S. and Europe, delighting thousands of audience members with what DownBeat calls "power that usually takes a lot of living to master. But the Purchase College graduate has got it in spades."
