Linda Kosut
Linda Kosut, a San Francisco-based vocalist and nightclub entertainer, traverses diverse influences and inspirations deftly and effortlessly. From jazz to pop to cabaret, she is comfortable on stage with her passionate and compelling vocal interpretations. The quality of her voice with its distinctive warm, dark sound, that rare talent to tell a story through a song's poetic images and her smart wit combine to leave audiences both entertained and moved. Linda makes any tune her own. Over the past year, Kosut has been performing a tribute to jazz legend Oscar Brown Jr. Her "Long as You're Living"nightclub show has received rave reviews around the San Francisco Bay Area, New York City, Chicago and Los Angeles, along with the newly released CD of the same name. Linda, a New York native, grew up in a musical family and studied dance and piano as a young girl. After graduating college, she turned to the business world for her living while continuing to study both music and acting. In the late 1990's, several years after her move to San Francisco, Linda began singing again and by 2003, had released her highly acknowledged debut CD, "Life is But a Dream", an eclectic mix of jazz standards and pop tunes. The CD was selected as one of the top female vocalist recordings by Cabaret Hotline, New York. She toured with her first one-woman show in 2005, playing New York, Los Angeles, and San Francisco and has performed at many venues across the San Francisco Bay Area including sell-out performances at the Empire Plush Room and Jazz at Pearl's. Linda co-founded the San Francisco vocal trio, The Kitchenettes, known for their swinging jazz renditions of food & lust related songs. Before their break-up to pursue solo careers, the group performed throughout California, in Italy, and in 2003, produced & recorded their CD Dining at the Banquet. Linda teaches performance technique, lyric interpretation and produces showcases for emerging vocal performers. She currently lives in San Francisco with her fiancé, their 3 dogs, 2 chickens, 2 turtles, a rabbit and 40 aquariums!
