'Like a fine red wine, Lenni's sound is full, vibrant, smoky and sensual, and where a good vintage might carry hints of cherry or chocolate, her rich and velvety voice and style is reminiscent of the 20th century's best loved female jazz vocalists.' - J.D. Carpenter, Author/Jazz Poet
Lenni Stewart 's vocal prowess is immediately evident in her innate ability to express the romance, energy, pathos and humour in classics penned by the great composers of the American Songbook, Swing, and Torch Ballads.
'I am passionate about the music I sing, and believe in having respect for the lyrics, and being true to their
story'.
Lenni's music and performance style are reminiscent of the early popular vocalists such as Peggy Lee, Doris Day, Sarah Vaughn and Judy Garland. 'Classy, sassy and sophisticated' she is a highly versatile entertainer. Lenni's strong stage presence, musicality, diverse repertoire and sense of humour make for a truly enjoyable and memorable audience experience.
Lenni performs in concert with the Lenni Stewart Jazz Trio, Lenny Graf Platinum Orchestra, Stewart & Gallo, and the Variety Dance Band, and has appeared as feature vocalist with the Cadillacs Showband, the Trentones and Big 8 Harmonizers among others. Lenni has shared the playbill with several Canadian music legends in special Benefit concerts, including Sylvia Tyson, Cindy Church and Georgette Fry.
