Dinah Washington

A smoky Los Angeles studio transformed into a late-night ritual—blue fire from a queen’s voice.

Dinah’s voice—equal parts velvet and fire—floats on ballads then pierces spotlight-like through upbeat motifs. Her phrasing is sharp, her storytelling intuitive, at times subdued and at others erupting in emotional surges.

Dim the lights. Close the door. Let the trumpet’s bristle, the drum’s crisp breath, and Dinah’s inimitable voice guide you through late-night immersion. Dinah Jams is a masterclass in jazz as conversation—spoken with emotion, courage, and communal spirit.
