From Lil Hardin Armstrong and Mary Lou Williams to Terri Lyne Carrington and countless others, women have played a vital role in shaping the sound, direction, and future of jazz. At Monterey Jazz, we're proud to support the next generation of artists carrying that tradition forward. Congratulations to the talented musicians selected for the Next Generation Women in Jazz Combo, under the direction of award-winning bassist, vocalist, composer, and educator Katie Thiroux. We are honored to celebrate their achievements and look forward to following their musical journeys. #WomenInJazz #JazzEducation #MontereyJazzFestival
