Juliet Green

Originally from Maui, Hawaii, Juliet Green has been a singer, songwriter and educator in the San Francisco Bay Area since 1991.

As a finalist in the Mid-Atlantic Jazz Vocal Competition, Juliet sang with the Chris Grasso trio on the Ronnie Wells Main Stage in February 2014. She also released a new album in the spring of 2014, "Think About That", which features her original songs as well as her original lyrics on songs by Anton Schwartz, Wycliffe Gordon, Greg Murai, and Isaac Raz. On the album, she is joined by many of the Bay Area's best players, such as Natalie Cressman, Murray Low, Phil Hawkins, Marc van Wageningen, John Shifflett, Quartet San Francisco, and many more.

Over the past two decades, Juliet has performed in various vocal jazz ensembles, winning the SF Regional Harmony Sweepstakes competition in 1998 and 2000 (+4db), 2005 (Moodswing) and 2012 (Sing Theory). Another ensemble, Clockwork, was selected to perform at the 2011 JEN Conference in New Orleans after the released of their acclaimed album "Every Voice Counts". She is currently the alto in the a cappella sextet Ro Sham Bo.

Juliet's other passion is working as an educator, clinician, and director. She has taught at the Jazzschool in Berkeley, at Jazz Camp West, and directs the six-time Downbeat award-winning Panache vocal jazz ensembles at Corte Madera School in Portola Valley. She will also be teaching at Stanford Jazz Camp this summer.

As a soloist, she sings with the big band A Touch of Brass under the direction of trumpeter Ed Morrison. Her first album, "Simple", released in 2003, is still widely available.
