SHANA TUCKER ChamberSoul

Lyrical storyteller. Soulful cellist. Dynamic singer-songwriter.

Featuring Christian Tamburr, Butler Knowles, and Al Sergel

Shana's unique genre of ChamberSoul weaves together jazz, roots folk, acoustic pop, and a touch of R&B into melodies that echo in your head for days. She's the rare performer you've never seen the likes of before--and one you'll never forget.

Steeped in story, Shana's ChamberSoul is rich, deep music that sits down next to you and puts its arm around your shoulders. "I'm intrinsically drawn to acoustic instruments because of their resonance, warmth, and intimacy," she says. "ChamberSoul brings musicians and the audience close and makes the music tangible, no matter how large or small the room is." Every Shana Tucker performance feels like it's just for you.

A front-line advocate for arts education, Shana is an accomplished teaching artist, incorporating community engagement, workshops, and teaching residencies into her touring schedule. She is the Executive Director of Kidznotes, a Durham-based non-profit engaging student pre-K through 12th grade in an intense out-of-school musical program that includes instrumental instruction, choir, music theory, general music, orchestra, and band.
