Andrea Superstein
jazzes Rossland
Andrea brings her modern take on
jazz to Rossland this January! ‘Super,’
as she is affectionately known, is an
award-winning vocalist, composer
and arranger with lots of heart. She
has a unique approach to songwriting
and it comes out in her work.
Her performances showcase powerful
vocals that exemplify both the
gentle and the strong, the light and
the dark. They lithely navigate the
colours of the emotional spectrum
from despair to joy, deep blues to
pop confection, often in the same
song. She’s in Rossland to perform at
the Miners’ Hall on January 11.
On stage is perhaps where Superstein
shines the brightest. She
commands every room she plays,
conducting an unforgettable musical
experience with a combination of
humour, charm, razor-sharp wit and
a sincere connection with her audience.
A truly interactive experience.
Superstein’s debut at the Vancouver
International Jazz Festival earned
her a nomination for a Galaxie Rising
Star award and she later shared
the stage with Canadian female
heavyweights Laila Biali and Brandi
Disterheft.
Superstein’s latest offering, Worlds
Apart showcases her true gifts as a
vocalist, composer and arranger. The
album consists primarily of original
music in an impressive three languages
(English, French, Hebrew),
rounded out by fresh arrangements
of classic jazz standards. It celebrates
her upbringing in Quebec, current
home in Vancouver and Jewish heritage.
With jazz luminary Elizabeth
Shepherd as producer and arranger,
the new record brings Superstein’s
fresh, modern ideas to the forefront.
She breathes the here and now into
the classics, while brushing authenticity
into every note of every new
song she writes. Her stylistic range is
only surpassed by her uncanny ability
to use dynamics to create a lush
musical experience rife with emotion:
deep, raw and always heartfelt.
Join the RCAC for the next offering
in their 2019/20 Performance

pm. Sponsored by Teck Trail Operations,
