Dee Alexander stands as one of Chicago’s most celebrated jazz vocalists, embodying what the Chicago Tribune calls “fearless innovation, respect for tradition and irrepressible creativity”. A West Side native who discovered jazz through her mother’s love of Sarah Vaughan, Billie Holiday, and Ella Fitzgerald, Alexander has become a vital force in Chicago’s musical landscape and beyond.
