Информация о артисте
Джейн Монхайт родилась 3 ноября 1977 года и выросла в Oукдейле, о. Лонг-Айленд, США. Она начала петь, лишь только научилась говорить; вся ее семья очень музыкальна: тетя и бабушка были профессиональными певицами, мать играла в музыкальном театре, отец был исполнителем на банджо, а брат Джейн – рок-гитарист. Когда она училась лишь в начальной школе, то уже тогда писала пьесы, ставила спектакли и исполняла роли в своем собственном маленьком театре для каждого, кто хотел стать ее зрителем. Девочкой она проводила бесчисленные часы, слушая джазовые записи родителей, особенно Эллу Фитцджеральд, Сару Вон, Кармен МакРа и Джони Митчелл. Они-то и оказали на нее наибольшее влияние. Непосредственно обучаться вокалу Джейн начала в 17 лет под руководством выдающегося преподавателя Питера Элдриджа, одного из основателей вокальной группы New York Voices. Ее друг по колледжу Рик Монталбано, за которого она вышла замуж в 2002 году, вывел ее на профессиональную джазовую сцену, сделав вокалисткой своего джаз-квинтета. В 1998 году, когда Джейн было 20 лет, она по протекции Питера Элдриджа поступила в Thelonious Monk Institute Vocal Competition и закончила обучение первой из курса, став самым молодым человеком, когда-либо выдержавшим это испытание за всю историю Monk Competition; второе место Джейн уступила ветерану джаза Тери Торнтону. Ее дебютный альбом Never Never Land, выпущенный в октябре 2000 года, содержал композиции таких светил джаза, как Кенни Баррон, Рон Картер, Баки Пизарелли, Дэвид "Fathead" Ньюмэн, Ханк Кроуфорд и Льюис Нэш, которые обеспечили совершенную музыкальную основу для ее гладкого, шелковистого сопрано. Джейн Монхайт сравнивали с Эллой Фитцждеральд и Дайаной Кролл, но на самом деле она прокладывает собственную дорожку к славе своей утонченной фразировкой и способностью тонко ухватить значение и суть песни.

Jane Monheit (born November 3, 1977) is considered to be one of the most promising American jazz vocalists of her generation.
Born in Oakdale, New York on Long Island, Monheit began singing professionally while attending Connetquot High School. At 17, she began studying at the Manhattan School of Music in New York City under the tutelage of Peter Eldridge. At the age of 20, as a senior, she won the first runner-up prize at the 1998 Thelonious Monk Institute Vocal Competition. In 1999, she received her Bachelor's degree in music.
Monheit's voice has been compared to that of Ella Fitzgerald, whom she lists as one of her influences. Songs she has recorded range from jazz standards to MGM/RKO musicals of the 1930s-1950s and Brazilian rhythms such as "Começar de novo".
Monheit released her debut album, Never Never Land in October 2000 and it became an instant success. This was followed shortly by her second album, Come Dream With Me (May 2001) and her third, In The Sun (October 2002).
Her fourth album, Live at the Rainbow Room, was released in December 2003. A similarly-titled DVD was released to complement the CD.
Her fifth album, Taking a Chance on Love, was released in September 2004. It debuted at the #1 spot on Billboard's traditional jazz chart and entered Billboard's top 100 pop chart the first week it was released. The album included the song Over the Rainbow, which had been included in her previous release recorded at the Rainbow Room, and also in the soundtrack for the film, Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow.
The Taking a Chance on Love DVD was released in March 2005 and contains performances from the Brecon Jazz Festival in Wales, UK. Monheit released her sixth album, The Season, in October 2005. Her first holiday-themed album, it debuted in the top 10 on Billboard's jazz chart. Monheit told jazzreview.com that it was inspired by Ella Fitzgerald's holiday album, Ella Wishes You a Swinging Christmas.
The singer recently signed a recording contract with Concord Records. Her most recent album, Surrender, debuted at #1 on Billboard's jazz chart.
