Lavender & Velvet: Jazz Ensemble in New York

About Lavender & Velvet

Lavender & Velvet is a jazz group heard in New York City rooms like Nublu, where they’ve appeared alongside Classicnewwave and The Living Room Band. Their performances often take the shape of collaborations, including sets billed as “Lavender & Velvet feat. Classicnewwave & The Living Room Band,” emphasizing interchange over fixed front‑person roles. The ensemble’s approach favors tight ensemble listening and clear melodic through-lines rather than spectacle. Onstage, the material moves between groove-based passages and open sections that leave space for guests to steer the direction.
