BendBroadband’s Jazz at the Oxford: Diane Schuur

Diane is as eclectic as she is brilliant. A longtime disciple of Dinah Washington and other legendary jazz singers of the ’40s and ’50s, she has built a stellar career by embracing not only the jazz of her parents’ generation, but also the pop music of her own youth during the late 1950s and ’60s. In a recording career that spans nearly three decades – and includes two Grammy Awards and three Grammy nominations – Diane’s music has explored nearly every corner of the 20th century American musical landscape.
