TICKETS $25 | ALL AGES WELCOME With a name that means ‘bliss’ in Sanskrit one could easily infer that Anandi’s music would conjure up sounds and images of sleepy mellowness. But this isn’t “New Age” music. Anandi performs with a strong sense of wakefulness, always swinging, with a penchant for poignant lyricism and melodic sophistication that makes her an instant hit with audiences. Born in Los Angeles to a singer/songwriter and a jazz drummer, Portland native Anandi ended up in Nova Scotia where she studied vocal jazz performance at St. Francis Xavier University. After a stint working at Rounder Records in Boston and singing her original songs around Boston and New York City she moved back to Portland after bearing ‘live’ witness to the 9/11 attacks in downtown New York City. Returning to jazz and singing in the style inspired by the likes of Sarah Vaughn, Nancy Wilson, and Carmen McCrae, she has become a well-respected singer, performing at venues like the legendary Jimmy Mack’s, The 1905, Jack London Revue and the PDX Jazz Festival. She has recorded seven albums, which include three albums of jazz, and has played and recorded with many local luminaries including Randy Porter, Greg Goebel, Mike Horsfall, Dave Captein, John Stowell & Ron Steen. Audiences enjoy Anandi's full spectrum approach to jazz, often adding “scat” and vocalese to her performance. She expects to release her fourth jazz album at the end of March 2026.
