Overview

Experience “a jazz singer of thrilling presence, a booming baritone with a gift for earthy refinement and soaring uplift” (New York Times). Gregory Porter sings with passion — and compassion — on studio albums including Liquid Spirit, Nat King Cole & Me and All Rise. This year, the two-time GRAMMY® winner celebrates a decade of his album Take Me to the Alley. It was an instant classic in 2016, jammed with gems like “Holding On,” “Don’t Lose Your Steam” and the indelible title track.

For over three decades, jazz virtuoso Madeleine Peyroux has traveled the world and graced the grandest concert halls to “share the magic of music with audiences, connect with people and uplift their spirits.” Like Porter, Peyroux is celebrating ten years of a pivotal album: Secular Hymns, her self-produced collaboration with guitarist Jon Herington and bassist Barak Mori.

We’re jazzed to welcome both artists back to the NJPAC stage!
