Janine Gilbert-Carter


Janine Gilbert-Carter, songstress extraordinaire (in my opinion!), will be embarking on an Italian Tour, October 26th through November 11th. She will be traveling to Torino, Italy, sponsored by Centro Jazz Torino as a part of their 19th Edition of the Blues all Femminile. Accompanying her will be, Eric Byrd on piano, Wes 'Sugar' Biles on bass, Jeff Neal on drums, and Brian Settles on sax. This will be Janine's first trip to Italy and the masses will be blown away by her rich, bluesy, and soulful voice, but will also be mesmerized by her gift to swing! I just wish I could go along on this trip! I have gotten to know Janine over the last couple of years, and we are actually neighbors (she lives on the 11th floor and I live on the 6th floor in the same building!) I have seen her perform many, many times, and each time is just like the first time all over again. I NEVER get tired of hearing her sing. Never. For more info on the tour, you can go to www.janinecarter.com or www.centrojazztorino.it
