Straight-from-the-heart vocals from an adventurous jazz infused singer. Ellen Robinson has loads of presence, a deeply expressive delivery and a wide range of first-rate material including many of her own magical originals. Those are some of the reasons an evening spent with her is both memorable and highly entertaining.

"Ellen Robinson knows how to connect with an audience. Each song has a story to tell and she does so with clarity and warmth."
(All About Jazz)

With a bevy of sold out shows at top regional venues, Ellen Robinson invites you to celebrate her return engagement to Yoshi’s in Jack London Square. Once again, she has assembled her quartet of four simpatico players who are immersed in her music: the multi talented Murray Low, nominated for 2008 Pianist of the Year by the Latin Jazz Corner; Sam Bevan, much in demand as a bassist who is solid on every kind of groove; drummer Bud Spangler, Grammy nominated CD producer and former KCSM and KJAZ radio host who draws on his Detroit roots; and Kristen Strom, one of the finest contemporary sax players who has recorded with many top jazz artists in addition to leading her own quintet.

This promises to be a very special night of music, one you definitely don’t want to miss.
