   About Jeannette Lambert


Inspired by her jazz-loving parents and childhood addresses that spanned the globe, Jeannette Lambert began singing professionally in coffee shops at the age of 12. Mentored by veterans of the Montreal jazz scene, including trumpeter Herbie Spanier, and influenced by the diverse vocal traditions of flamenco, fado, and jaipong, she grew up playing in professional jam sessions with visiting artists such as vocalist Jon Hendricks.

She would go on to further refine her musical style studying with vocalist Jay Clayton, the legendary Cecil Taylor and others at the Banff Jazz Workshop. Geoff Chapman of the Toronto Star wrote that "unadorned elegance is the keynote of Jeannette Lambert's singing" and she was named one of the 500 best jazz vocalists of all time by author Scott Yanow in his book, Jazz Singers. Her latest recording is with Michel Lambert on his new cd, "Unclouded Day", performing the poetry of Emily Bronte, with Raoul Björkenheim on guitar and Mat Maneri on viola. The recording is available through Ayler Records.

She has performed around the world, written lyrics for music recorded by a number of other jazz vocalists, and co-founded the artist collective/record label Jazz From Rant with her brother, guitarist Reg Schwager, and her husband, drummer Michel Lambert, in 1991. In addition to her music career, she is an Internet filmmaker and soundtrack composer for a variety of film projects.

"Sand Underfoot is a top notch session The undisputable stand-out track is "Sand Underfoot," It sums up all of this album's delicateness, creativity and telepathic interaction ... Sand Underfoot remains firmly anchored in jazz, if only by Jeannette's deep understanding of jazz singing and Michel's flexible free swing, so there is no need to be afraid." All-Music Guide
