French vocalist and scat virtuoso, rising star Marina Pacowski celebrates the jubilant, hard-swinging music of musical genius Carl Saunders in the official release concert of her new CD: “New Jazz Standards, Volume 7” on Summit Records. Marina will be backed by an all-star band, including legendary drummer Roy McCurdy, pianist Josh Nelson, bassist Ken Wild, trumpeter Ron Stout, saxophonist Rickey Woodard, trombonist Scott Whitfield and a couple of special surprise guests for a highly entertaining evening!

Praise from her last album: "It is kind of rare when you hear a vocalist who can truly fit into the category of jazz singer. Such a singer is Marina Pacowski. Pacowski has a vocal quality when singing lyrics that is a blend of Blossom Dearie and Billie Holiday. Her scatting is rangy and intelligent. There are not many debut albums by a vocalist that reach the heights of excellence that Marina Pacowski has achieved on this one.” - by Joe Lang, Jersey Jazz
