With a deep contralto voice “as smooth and dark as the richest espresso,” award-winning jazz vocalist Alexis Cole has made an impressive impact. The Jazz Times says “Cole’s easy sense of swing is strongly reminiscent of Sarah Vaughan,” and the Swing Journal raves, “we've been waiting for the next great singer to come along, and finally... Alexis.”  Tickets to Alexis Cole Quintet at Caramoor@KMA can be purchased at http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/704510
