JULY 25: Samara Joy featuring the Pasquale Grasso Trio
Samara Joy - voice, Pasquale Grasso - guitar, Ari Roland - bass, Keith Balla - drums

Samara Joy is one of the more imposing young singers working in jazz. She’s from a gospel family; her first exposure to jazz was at Fordham High School for the Arts, and a short time later she became the Ella Fitzgerald Scholar and in 2019 she won the Sarah Vaughan International Vocal Competition. Samara will be joined by a trio led 30 year old Pasquale Grasso, a budding star from the world of solo guitar. “It’s great working with him because I know he brings his best, which pushes me to bring my A-game – nothing less.” Don’t miss these two rising stars perform at Duck Creek.
