The Shimkas Group is the hottest ticket in town. Composed of Greg Sankovich on keyboard, Bob Blankenship on drums, Audrey Shimkas on vocals and Tony Malfatti on sax – they create a whole new genre when they improvise unique transformations inside familiar jazz tunes; remake familiar pop tunes and melt Brazilian rhythms into pure lyricism.
The talented ensemble explores the creativity and distinctive style with its vocalist, originating arrangements of American and Brazilian jazz standards and contemporary material, i.e. Blood, Sweat & Tears, Prince, Lorde, Billy Childs, etc. …talk about jazz, the subtleties, the intricacies, the soul, the storytelling, and the harmonies – qualities that can’t be bought or borrowed, faked or sold, which probably explains why the Shimkas Group has emerged as one of the most distinctive and compelling ensembles performing on the scene.
