One of the more impressive jazz singers to emerge in the 1990s, Karrin Allyson is a great scat singer but also highly expressive on ballads. She grew up in Omaha, NE, and the San Francisco Bay Area and graduated from the University of Nebraska in 1987. After performing regularly at a Minneapolis club, Alyson moved to Kansas City which has been her home base ever since. Thus far she has had three fine recordings on Concord. ~ Scott Yanow
