Internationally-acclaimed song-stylist and Grammy-nominated lyricist Mary Anne Anderson has a smooth style. Her voice is expressive and warm making it perfectly matched for the timeless classics and original songs she performs.  Her flair for languages makes her interpretation of melody and lyrics an authentic jazz experience.
