Shows in NYC this weekend!! California in Feb.!

Linnzi Zaorski has been a presence on the neo-trad jazz scene originating on Frenchmen Street in New Orleans since its very beginnings over a decade ago. Known for her unique and refreshing phrasing, she breathes new life into the classic depression-era swing tunes and possesses the ability to transform a venue into a late night speak easy with her coy, after-hours charm. Her effortless delivery conjures a bygone era and her band of clever musicians emanate cool, rhythmic style.

Linnzi Zaorski

“Linnzi is the Ninth Ward’s torchiest torch singer, evoking the lost, romantic days when men were men and women were dames in seamed stockings and stiletto heels.” —Offbeat Magazine

“She decided to come back to New Orleans, beautiful move, her whole heart, but how to survive. I suggest that she star in a movie soon, because she looks just right like a cross between an icy Hitchcock blonde and the silent movie era comedienne.” –Andrei Codrescu

“Even when singing laments like “Why Was I Born?” you get the impression that beneath the pout, there is an assured smirk, that when she declares “Our Love Is Here To Stay,” she’s crossing her fingers. This girl’s definitely got style.” –Offbeat Magazine

“Most of the current female jazz vocalists sing with an airy-prettiness, but Zaorski sings like the brassy, sassy broads of yesteryear.” —ZeeGig San Diego
