This was in today’s listings in the New York Times:

GRACE KELLY at Le Poisson Rouge (July 26, 8 p.m.). Ms. Kelly released her first album over a decade ago, at age 12. With a broad tone and tenacious flow on the alto saxophone, she was clearly in possession of virtuoso talents; two leading alto saxophonists from jazz’s heyday — Phil Woods and Lee Konitz — become her mentors. But in recent years, Ms. Kelly, now 26, has expanded her palette, sometimes putting her impressive singing voice out front, and flitting among a range of styles. Her most recent album, “Go Time Brooklyn,” includes a winsome, countrified ballad (the original “Trying to Figure It Out”), a saxophone-and-drums workout on Thelonious Monk’s “Green Chimneys” and a lively rendition of Michael Jackson’s “Billie Jean” that becomes an open field for improvisation.
