live broadcast of multiple Juno Award nominee, Nikki Yanofsky, from the legendary
Blue Note Jazz Club in New York City on Wednesday, January 26th at 8:30PM.
"It has been my hope for some years to develop a relationship with The Blue Note
in New York City, so that from time to time JAZZ.FM91 can broadcast concerts from
this esteemed venue. I am excited that our very first Live-to-Air from The Blue
Note will feature incredibly talented Canadian artist, Nikki Yanofsky," said Ross
Porter, President and CEO.
Since its inception in 1981, The Blue Note has become one of the premier jazz clubs
in the world and a cultural institution in Greenwich Village. Jazz fans across the
globe travel to The Blue Note to hear live jazz. It is not uncommon to see the likes
of Stevie Wonder, Tony Bennett, Liza Minnelli, and Quincy Jones get called up on
stage from the audience to sit in.

in the spring of 2010.The album opened in Canada in the top 5 and achieved gold
sales status within 3 months. In the United States, Nikki debuted at #1 on
the Billboard Heatseekers chart. Produced by 14-time Grammy Award-winner Phil Ramone,
and Grammy-Award winner Jesse Harris (Norah Jones), Nikki features new arrangements
of classic jazz songs as well as some of Nikki's first original music. It includes
