WHY YOUR SUPPORT MATTERS

The Gallo Center for the Arts is a non-profit performing arts center with a deep commitment to enriching the people and communities of California’s vast San Joaquin Valley. From the scintillating performances of its wonderful resident companies, to the great variety of world-class entertainment presented by the Center each season, to robust arts education programs for the region’s youth, this is where the magic happens.

From the beginning, the Center’s mission has been clearly defined: to provide an inspirational civic gathering place where regional, national, and international cultural activities illuminate, educate, and entertain. Since revenue from ticket sales and facility rentals only covers a portion of the costs associated with fulfilling this mission, the Center is dependent on the generous annual financial support from donors and program sponsors within our community.

Veronica Swift - Veronica Swift

Veronica Swift’s new eponymously titled album, her third for Mack Avenue Records, is a masterful comingout story. On her previous albums, Confessions (2019) and This Bitter Earth (2021), she ascended to the upper echelon of early 21st century jazz singers because of her virtuosic brilliance, interpretive ingenuity, bracing songwriting, and keen arrangements. Simply put, Swift is not only one of the most dazzling singers to emerge in her generation, she’s one of the most versatile.

While her first two albums solidified her position in modern jazz, Veronica Swift shows that she’s more than a jazz singer, exploring French and Italian opera, European classical music, bossa nova, blues, industrial rock, funk, and vaudeville. She pulls the feat off without the results sounding callow or pastiche. Swift’s expansive artistic voice remains firmly intact regardless of genre.

Swift describes this personal artistic statement on her new album as “transgenre.” “I grew up immersed in the culture of jazz music, blessed to have had some of the greats as mentors, and I felt a deep familial duty to uphold that tradition,” she says, reflecting on her parents – jazz singer and educator, Stephanie Nakasian, and bebop pianist, Hod O’Brien.

“But as rooted in jazz as I’ve been, there’s a uniquely visceral power in rock and soul music that’s always fueled my creative passion, and rather than mask or confine that part of my identity, the people I admire most show themselves unabashedly and that’s the kind of tradition I want to be a part of.”

For the album, Swift enlists Brian Viglione of the punk cabaret duo The Dresden Dolls as drummer as well as c0-producer along with Swift and Mariano Aponte. Also on board is a motley crew of musicians that includes

pianist, keyboardist and organist Adam Klipple, pianist and arranger Randy Waldman, guitarists Chris Whiteman and Samson Schmitt, percussionist Luisito Quintero, singer Austin Patterson, violinist and violist Antoine Silverman, violinist Pierre Blanchard, bassists Phillip Norris, Alex Claffy, Antonio Licusati and Felix Maldonado, saxophonists Troy Roberts and David Leon, trumpeters Benny Benack III and James Sarno, trombonist Javier Nero, percussionist Luisito Quintero, accordionist Ludovic Bier, vocalist Carolynne Framil and woodwindist and orchestrator David Mann.

The album ignites with the extravagant rendition of Jerry Herman’s “I Am What I Am” from the Broadway musical, La Cage aux Folles. Swift imbues the infectiously swinging tune with unfettered joy, especially when she launches into a sublime scat excursion that segues into a Johann Sebastian Bach-inspired fugue. For Swift, the song becomes a declaration of artistic freedom.

From there, she switches gears on her treatment of Nine Inch Nails’ “Closer’’ that’s anchored by an intricate Clyde Stubblefield-inspired drum pattern, reminiscent of his work on James Brown’s epochal classic, “Cold Sweat.” As stabbing horns, pulverizing bass, and energetic vocals join the foil, Swift channels her alt-rock sensibilities before surprisingly blasting off into another sensational scat passage. A celebration of carnal hunger, this razor-sharp arrangement alludes to her love of ’90s industrial rock.

Veronica Swift grows even more ferocious with her gusty treatment of Duke Ellington and Bob Russell’s classic “Do Nothing Till You Hear from Me,” on which Whiteman’s lacerating guitar licks channel both Jimi Hendrix and Albert King as Swift recasts the song into a Mississippi Delta blues burner.

The album simmers down with Swift’s poignant extrapolation of the verse from Queen’s “The Show Must Go On,” which she underpins with infectious Afro-Cuban rhythms. The song also serves as another

example of her “transgenre” concept as she utilizes Nat King Cole’s arrangement of Ruggero Leoncavallo’s aria, “Vesti la Giubba” from his opera, Pagliacci.

The album returns to Swift’s love for American musical theater with the dramatic reading of Harry Carroll and Joseph McCarthy’s vaudeville ballad “I’m Always Chasing Rainbows,” which is fused with Frédéric Chopin’s “Fantasie-Impromptu.” That gives way to an original composition, “In the Moonlight,” a stunning torch ballad on which Swift adapts Ludwig van Beethoven’s “Moonlight Sonata” and includes a hidden nod to Sergei Rachmaninoff’s “Piano Concerto No. 2” harmonic structure on the choruses.

Swift continues with another magnificent original, “Severed Heads,” a gentle bossa containing snarky, amorous lyrics. Again Swift’s brilliance as an arranger radiates through the melody, which incorporates fragments of Giacomo Puccini’s “Perché Tarda la Luna?” from his 1924 opera, Turandot (originally adapted from the popular Chinese folk song, “Mo Li Hua (Jasmine Flower Song).”

She demonstrates her mastery at singing in French and Portuguese, respectively, with her spine-tingling readings of Charles-François Gounod’s aria “Je Veux Vivre,” from his 1867 opera, Roméo et Juliette, and Antônio Carlos Jobim and Vinícius de Moraes’ 1957 bossa nova gem “Chega de Saudade.”

Swift returns to the hard rock canon with a winning cover of Queen’s 1973 anthem “Keep Yourself Alive” before closing the multifaceted album with a punk rendition of Bob Merrill and Jule Styne’s “Don’t Rain on My Parade” from the 1964 musical Funny Girl.

Swift first gained major international attention in 2015 when she won second place in the Thelonious Monk Institute of Jazz International Vocals Competition. Four years later, Mack Avenue Records released her acclaimed album Confessions when she was only 25

years old. She demonstrated her flair for conceptual song cycles on her follow-up album, This Bitter Earth, which not only gave glimpses of her rock influences but thematically touched upon some of the harder truths of being a woman, particularly when it comes to domestic abuse.

Swift says that for her new album she’d been exploring her “transgenre” concept for about two-and-half years. During the Covid-19 pandemic, she strategized the unveiling of this more artistically naked version of herself to the public while being mindful of how conservative the mainstream jazz industry can be.

“Often times, I’ve experienced blowback from some of the more “purist” members of the jazz community when exploring outside the parameters of straightahead. Early on, (well-meaning) people wanted to dress me in flowy gowns and make me this torchbearer of the Great American Songbook, but I’ve traded in the frocks for fringe bodysuits.”

She forged and refined most of the material for Veronica Swift on the road. Much to her delight, audiences enthusiastically welcomed the new direction. “My live concerts have been the experiment by which I am seeing the readiness of the audience to embrace the full scope of who I am, and it’s encouraging to know I can continue to push myself creatively and invite people into the fold along the way.”

“I remind people that any exploration of music outside of straight-ahead jazz is an addition, not a subtraction,” Swift continues. “I just hope this album helps people embrace every aspect of who they are, and let it guide their own self-expression.”
