Jonathan Karrant - The Johnny Mercer Songbook Singer Jonathan Karrant salutes the music of legendary lyricist Johnny Mercer. Mercer's compositions made a significant impact on the Great American Songbook, including songs like "Autumn Leaves", "Moon River", "Skylark" "Summer Wind" and so many more. Mercer was a top writer for Capital Records in the 1950's and 60's and collaborated with several iconic composers such as Henry Mancini, Johnny Mandael and Herold Arlen just to name a few. His songwriting was considered to be very prolific and provocative, creating word images through his lyrics, triggering thoughts and emotions. With a repertoire that spans classic jazz standards and contemporary interpretations, Karrant brings a modern elegance to the timeless genre of jazz. Karrant, who has recorded several of Mercer’s songs, will perform many of Mercer’s most popular hits on September 12, 2026. Karrant will also give you a peak of some of the songs off his most recent album. Jonathan Karrant's album, On and On , hit No. 4 on the Billboard Jazz charts and his album Live hit No. 2 on the iTunes Jazz Charts. He has recorded with such notable artists as Diane Schuur and Jane Monheit. Karrant has received honors throughout the United States including: the New York City Cabaret Jazz Honors, “Best Singer” by the Bravo California Awards and was named one of the Top 10 Rising Jazz Vocalists by Downbeat . Karrant doesn’t cover songs, he uncovers them. Jazz Corner Jonathan Karrant Video Reel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hcyFaSlFQwQ www.jonathankarrant.com “A voice, romantic without being cloying, warm but not forced, Jonathan carries songs with an emotional weight that reaches your soul. At the same time he can swing with the kind of jazz suave that was patented by Mel Torme.” - Jazz Corner
