Ana Choired Taste

Ana Choired Taste is the only known jazz vocal ensemble in the world to specialize in the music of Zappa, Nilsson and other composers of a quirky ilk. The group has performed at Kitano, Fat Cat, the Duplex, Cornelia Street Café and many other venues in NYC. Starting with a 14-piece choir, they have streamlined to four voices and a rhythm section. John McMahon and Dylan Pramuk are two of NYC's premiere vocal jazz artists (Dylan is primarily a Royal Bopster). They are augmented by an array of special guests including the great Janis Siegel of Manhattan Transfer and the equally fab Lauren Kinhan of New York Voices.

Lee Tomboulian leads and arranges, plays piano and accordion. The renowned bass virtuoso and composer Ratzo Harris (Kenny Werner Trio) and composer and drummer Brian Woodruff round out the rhythm section.
The group collaborates with cabaret/jazz/spoken word artist Mary Foster Conklin narrating original pieces, like the Balloon Man (words by Donald Barthelme).

The group (with special guests) is set to produce a series of videos for Patreon, but we could most definitely use your help to make that happen—Be part of one of the most creative vocal ensembles anywhere!
