She’s a 21-year-old jazz singer, borne in Russian, grew up in Israel and lives in Canada. I know the trend is to teenage jazz divas, but Ms. Milman sounds to me like the real deal. She’s got a very classical voice, in a bit of a musical theatre style. She’s no Cassandra Wilson, certainly, but I like the way she belts out the standards. There’s some sample songs from her debut album on her (Flash-o-rama) site. She’s also playing in the Vancouver Jazz Festival, at the (always charming) Capilano College Performing Arts Theatre in North Van. It’s the day I get back from Gnomedex, but I may try to catch her show.

UPDATE: Does anybody want to go with me? If so, drop me an email.
