Valerie Day has a voice that is evocative of another time, yet refreshingly modern. Remembered for her work with the Grammy nominated band NU SHOOZ, Valerie has returned to her musical roots and her love of jazz. Whether fronting a big band or singing with a small jazz combo, Valerie injects new life into standards from the Great American Songbook with impressive range and effortless delivery.
An in-demand singer and session player, Valerie performs and records with artists ranging from the Oregon Symphony Pops to pianist Michael Allen Harrison, celebrated jazz songwriter/pianist David Frishberg, African drummer Obo Addy and many others as well as recording for regional and national radio commercials.
“…Day sings with a warm, assured tone and interpretive depth…” – The Oregonian
