Groovin’ High congratulates Roy Hargrove and Roberta Gambarini on their Grammy nominations!!!
Two-time Grammy winner Roy Hargrove has been nominated for a Best Improvised Jazz Solo Grammy for “Ms. Garvey, Ms. Garvey,” from his first big band album, ‘Emergence.’
Roberta Gambarini earns her second Best Jazz Vocal Grammy Nomination for ‘So In Love.’
Congratulations to Roy and Roberta!
Roberta Gambarini has been featured in the latest issues of Newsweek and Jazz Times!
Jazz Times exclaims “If there’s any lingering doubt that Roberta Gambarini has, with remarkable alacrity, joined the upper exchelon of jazz singers, So In Love should erase it. Gambarini opens with the Cole Porter title track, allowing it to unfold in slow reveal, achieving a sublime effect that suggests twinkling stars appearing one by one against a jet black sky.”
Roberta Gambarini’s new album, ‘So In Love,’ is #3 on the Jazz Week Radio chart!
Roy Hargrove’s new Big Band album, ‘Emergence,’ is # on the Jazz Week Radio chart!
Nate Chinen in the NEW YORK TIMES: “‘Emergence,’ his first big-band album, puts a bright gloss on a spruce ambition, with a high degree of musicianship and a lot of solicitous charm.”
