CD Release Party Featuring
KJ Denhert & The Evening News
Reservations suggested via RESY online
KJ Denhert is an NYC-based, award-winning songwriter, guitarist, vocalist and bandleader who has shared stages with artists ranging from Alicia Keys, Roberta Flack, Robert Cray, and more. An internationally touring artist, KJ’s career spans 40 years, numerous albums, and legions of devoted fans worldwide. A child of the 60s, KJ’s music is both a rich tapestry of Urban Folk & Jazz and a reflection of the fiery time of cultural upheaval in which she lived. Echoes of James Taylor, Joni Mitchel, Carole King, Laura Nyro and, Steely Dan’s combine with KJ’s own unique musical voice to create music that is both unique and relevant for today.
KJ is an artist unbound by identity directives. A gifted guitarist, she draws from a broad palette of urban musical heritage, and jazz and folk traditions. Her soulful and smoky vocal stylings are earthy and elegant. To truly know this artist one simply needs to turn to her music. The sultry folk track “We Were Diamonds” recounts a painfully complex moment where KJ encouraged her friend not to back down during a threatening standoff. On “Esmeralda,” KJ paints a loving portrait of a friendship. These songs (and more) Her songs unfold like stories, an American Songbook; full of romance, conflict, love, and more – all told as only a storyteller who has lived these tales can share.
