»I’ll be back!« announced Samara Joy after her acclaimed Elbphilharmonie debut in November 2023 – now the young jazz singer with the goosebump voice is keeping her word and returning with her third album »Portrait«. The five-time Grammy award winner, who is often compared to greats such as Nina Simone, Sarah Vaughan and Ella Fitzgerald, presents classics in new arrangements as well as originals and her own lyrics to jazz standards.



At just 24 years old, Samara Joy radiates an incredible nonchalance and self-assurance and wants to show herself as an artist who knows exactly what she wants. She has gained so much experience on the concert stage in recent years that she now has the courage to arrange the songs herself, publish her own lyrics – to two jazz classics by Charles Mingus and Barry Harris – and make all the important decisions about the album herself as co-producer. »I hope that listeners will get to know me better through the album!«


At her side is a band that has already mastered numerous gigs together in this line-up and is a well-rehearsed team that makes music together effortlessly and full of joy. The Hamburger Abendblatt already wrote about the last Elbphilharmonie performance that the musicians »set off a firework display of surprising rhythm changes, short solos and unusual interpretations.«
