Greetings, Flugelfans! We're thrilled to welcome visiting artist Holly Pyle on her Pacific Northwest Tour, May 4-14. Beloved for her “soulfully graceful, liquid-like voice” (Phoenix New Times), Holly started out as an opera major before studying jazz and psychology at Northern Arizona University. Now one of the most popular vocalists in the Valley of the Sun, Holly performs with leading jazz groups, tours with the progressive soul-pop band House of Stairs, and appears regularly as a solo acapella act using electronic looping to build masterful sonic creations. Don’t miss the Dmitri Matheny Group featuring Holly Pyle!
