The New York Times raves, “Carter Calvert effervesces: her voice echoes chimes in the night.” One of today’s most versatile performers, Carter Calvert’s talents don’t fit neatly into one category. As a belter, she has been praised by critics for roles like Grizabella in Cats and Eva Perón in Evita. As a blues singer and singular actress, she originated her role in the Tony-nominated seven-person cast of It Ain’t Nothin’ But the Blues, alongside Grammy Award winner Gregory Porter. She wowed audiences with her country chops during her recent portrayal of Patsy Cline opposite Sally Struthers in Always… Patsy Cline. And, recently her talent as a comedienne took center stage in the brand new NYC production of Forbidden Broadway: Comes Out Swinging!
On Carter Calvert’s latest recording It’s a Man’s World, she tackles thirteen songs associated with iconic male artists. Enlisting some of the most talented Grammy Award-winning musicians and arrangers in the business, Calvert confidently reimagines material from Ray Charles, The Police, Bruce Springsteen, James Brown, and more. Hear that recording LIVE at 54 Below this fall, when Carter celebrates its release.
“Her voice truly is a siren and she has a range like no other. Joined by her husband’s trio they embark on a truly personal journey of arrangements and songs that showcase Calvert’s immense talent and abilities.” –JazzTimes
