Self-Accompanying Jazz Artists

Recommended Posts

I am preparing a program on self-accompanying jazz artists and am not sure if this is the precise forum to post this question.

Of course, there are jazz pianists who also sang, notably Nat King Cole. Of course, there is Nina Simone and Diana Krall. There are Slim and Slam.

I am not looking for blues, rock, or folk artists. There are tons and tons of them who accompany themselves.

I would appreciate other artists who sing and who also play an instrument.

Many thanks
