Jazzweek: Cavana Lee Quartet

Cavana Lee (vocals), Konrad Hertzfeldt (bass), Joe Hertenstein (drums), Regis Molina (saxophone)

The German-American singer Cavana Lee was born, so to speak, the in the avant-garde improvisation jazz scene. Her parents, Jeanne Lee and Gunter Hampel, were her first musical mentors. She grew up touring and playing in various bands, including her father's Music and Dance Improvisation Company (MDIC). "Good Grief" is her first solo project, released on Bandcamp in 2022. Die EP enthält drei Songs, wobei "Good Grief" live in Berlin bei Zentrifuge als Septett aufgenommen wurde. She is looking forward to performing at King Georg in Cologne as a quartet, together with Konrad Herzfeldt, Valentin Seehausen and Regis Molina. Ihre eklektischen Songs reichen von rührseligen Balladen bis hin zu tanzbaren, synergetischen Impulsen.
