Kim Maguire Group

The Kim Maguire Group presents “Swing and Torch: Songs we know and love from the Great American Songbook and the world of early jazz”.  John Hansen on piano, Paul Gabrielson on bass and Jeff Busch on drums. The music encapsulates the timeless melodies of the 1940’s and 1950’s that somehow still capture our ears and our hearts. Kim excels in interpreting these standards and ballads, infusing them with a unique blend of emotion and technical mastery. Kim is a Seattle/Kobe Female Jazz Vocalist finalist, and a mainstay in the vocal Seattle jazz scene. Described as a “stunning singer” with an authentic and charismatic presence, Kim’s style is characterized by its joy, technical skill, and a distinctive, silky-smooth vocal texture. “Swing and Torch” is not just a performance; it’s a celebration of the enduring power of music to evoke joy, nostalgia, and the sheer thrill of being transported to a bygone era.
