Robin Bessier
With a vocal style described by fans as “delectable, soothing, angelic, sassy and lilting..." Bessier's diverse musical background - which has included singing in Afro-Cuban drumming ensembles, a cappella groups, Latin big bands, small jazz ensembles, gospel choirs, classical and folk groups and musical theater - informs both her vocal choices and her songwriting.
Whether swinging on a standard, floating on a bossa, or offering up a ballad, Robin's crystal clear tones and lyrical, conversational style are delivered within a strong rhythmic groove.

Robin Bessier has a voice that sparkles, clear and lucid as a flowing stream bubbling with vivacity...Bessier's own Right Here, Right Now reminds me of some of Flora Purim's old catalogue, bursting with joy even when wistful.
