“Close your eyes when you see Gina McLaughlin perform for the first time, and you’d be forgiven for experiencing the brief but exhilarating sensation of time travel. Is that a little Ella? An echo of Nina Simone? Does any vocalist swing and sway so effortlessly, so innately, so delicately anymore?” Rob Brookman; Musician, owner of Lost in America Records

Join us for a very special evening with the Gina McLaughlin trio – vocalist Gina McLaughlin, guitarist Scott Pazera and bassist Thomas Brinkley. Let yourself be transported by this fine vocalist who has performed around the country and now calls Indianapolis her home.

Gina has studied with Jay Clayton and Nancy King in the late 90’s in the Pacific Northwest, and then moved to Chicago to play with so many great players on the scene there. The great musicians and teachers she has met in Chicago and Seattle have schooled her in the fine-tuning of creating great music, and presenting a solid, swinging, experience to an audience.

Gina loves having her audience fully experience the depth and emotion of the great jazz compositions.
