Winner of the Montreux Jazz Festival Vocal Competition, the Sarah Vaughn International Jazz Vocal Competition and finalist in the Thelonious Monk Vocal Competition, Aimee is – in the words of Will Friedwald of The Wall Street Journal – “One of the most promising jazz singers of her generation.” She was brought up in the village Samois-sur-Seine, France, where her introduction to jazz was the result of the fortuitous location – the same place where legendary gypsy guitarist Django Reinhardt had lived.
