A lifelong fan of mid-century nightclub jazz combos and crooners, Detroit native Chris Plum is a genre-flexing jazz singer, songwriter, performer, and “blue balladeer.” Raised immersed in the big band and jazz vocal sounds of the 30’s, 40’s, and 50’s on his parent’s Victrola, he has crafted a sound that is both indebted to the jazz vocal greats, while showcasing his ability to craft and innovate original, authentic compositions. Plum has performed around the world at iconic venues including Ronnie Scott’s and Royal Albert Hall in London, as well as international festivals such as the Montreux Jazz Festival, Reading and Leeds in the U.K., South by Southwest, and Denmark’s Roskilde Festival. Plum has had music featured in indie films, commercials and has performed on late night television. He has recently assembled a band of Detroit jazz musicians to record and release a new album of original compositions titled, “The Small Hours.” Pressed at Third Man Pressing in Detroit’s Cass Corridor, the record has been well received, recently being nominated for Outstanding Jazz Recording at the Detroit Music Awards.
