March is “Women In Her-story” month. Pianist-Vocalist Champian Fulton, 40, Oklahoma-born, has released 18 albums, performed in 26 countries and is a constant on critic polls. Playing since the age of 10, she moved to New York City in 2003, and has been a Birdland regular ever since. Her Meet Me At Birdland album was one of the best examples of 2023 jazz vocalese. On March 2, the Madison Community Arts Center will be awash with her trio of bassist Hide Tanaka and drummer Aleksi Heinola supporting her scat. Opening is The Karen Xie Quartet.
