Evening of party jazz with electric violinist and vocalist Cathy Morris, with doors at 5 p.m.
Cathy Morris brings Spooky Nights to The Jazz Kitchen on Wednesday, October 28, with doors opening at 5 PM and the show starting at 7 PM. It's a night of party jazz, presented by WOW, and Morris is the one leading the whole thing.
If you haven't heard her before, Morris is an electric violinist, vocalist, and composer who's spent more than two decades performing across genres. She calls what she does 'Party Jazz,' and the description tells you exactly what to expect: a high-energy blend where Latin spice, deep funk grooves, and rock energy meet sophisticated jazz-fusion, Celtic rhythms, and Cajun beats. She weaves soaring electric violin tones and rich vocals into a single groove, so the violin and the singing share the spotlight rather than one taking the lead.
That mix is the whole point of the night. The Latin and funk elements provide the danceable foundation, while the jazz-fusion, Celtic, and Cajun influences bring in the more melodic and rhythmic textures. It's a wide-reaching set, and because she handles both the violin and the vocals, the two lines run through the music together. The 'party' part of the name isn't just for show—the energy is meant to be high and the groove is meant to be infectious.
