Kerrytown Concert House is honored to introduce award-winning virtuoso jazz trombonist Nanami Haruta with Sliding into Swing, backed by the outstanding Paul Keller Quartet: Adam Mosley (piano), Ralph Tope (guitar), Paul Keller (bass), and David Alvarez III (drums).

Born in Japan, Haruta began studying music at the age of 5, and by 13 years old was giving concerts in Sapporo. She went on to win multiple grand prizes at significant summer music programs during her high school years, and with a move to Tokyo in 2020 and quickly began making an impact on the Japanese jazz scene. Her artistic activities expanded to involve significant jazz collaborations, performances, and recordings (her first solo album “II” was released in 2022). She is currently a music student at Michigan State University’s Jazz Studies program studying with Grammy award-winning trombonist and professor Michael Dease. Haruta was recently selected to the 2024 Sisters in Jazz Collegiate Jazz Combo which performed at the Annual Jazz Educators Conference this past January in New Orleans.
