Gregory Porter: Jazz Musician in New York

About Gregory Porter

Gregory Porter is an American jazz singer and songwriter known for a resonant baritone and a repertoire that moves between vocal jazz, jazz pop, and standards-inflected originals. He received Grammy Awards for Best Jazz Vocal Album for *Liquid Spirit* (2014) and *Take Me to the Alley* (2017), recordings that anchor his recent body of work. Porter appears at NJPAC, a familiar stop for major jazz vocalists in the New York–area circuit. His performances favor clarity of lyric and groove over spectacle.
