SUMMARY:Blues and Blessings feat Pianist Singer Mala Waldron at Mt Zion AME Millburn
DESCRIPTION:Mala Waldron — Vocalist\, Pianist\, Composer\n\n\n\nFrom the Kennedy Center to Dizzy’s Club Coca-Cola\, Mala Waldron has moved audiences around the world. Her soulful voice and piano turn every song into a story worth hearing. \n\n\n\n\n\nMala Waldron is a deeply expressive artist whose music bridges generations\, genres\, and continents. Born into jazz royalty as the daughter of legendary pianist and composer Mal Waldron\, Mala carries forward a legacy rooted in the golden age of jazz while forging her own path as a vocalist\, pianist\, and composer of striking originality. \n\n\n\nHer father\, Mal Waldron\, was a towering figure in jazz history — house pianist for Prestige Records in the 1950s\, collaborator with Charles Mingus\, Eric Dolphy\, and John Coltrane\, and most famously\, Billie Holiday’s final accompanist from 1957 until her death in 1959. His composition “Soul Eyes\,” written for Coltrane\, remains a jazz standard. Mala’s own journey honors and expands that legacy: her debut album “Lullabye” was a tribute to her godmother Billie Holiday\, her duo project “He’s My Father” with Mal Waldron captured the rare intimacy of familial musical dialogue\, and her U.S. release “Always There” was licensed by Columbia Records Japan and named one of JazzUSA’s Top 20 Jazz CDs of 2006. \n\n\n\nA New York City native\, Mala began piano lessons at age 7 and was gigging professionally by 15\, when her R&B band was signed to RCA Records. She studied jazz piano\, voice\, and composition at SUNY Old Westbury with Makanda Ken McIntyre. Her artistry blends jazz\, soul\, and singer-songwriter intimacy\, marked by lyrical storytelling\, rich harmonic textures\, and a voice that resonates with emotional depth. \n\n\n\nShe has performed at the Kennedy Center\, Dizzy’s Club Coca-Cola\, Jazz Standard\, and festivals across Europe\, Asia\, and Africa\, including a tour with the 45-piece Magna Grecia Orchestra in Italy. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n.  \n\n\nRegister on Eventbrite
