Kaylee Daugherty is quickly becoming an established singer in the San Diego jazz scene. With roots in Gospel and R&B, she approaches her musical interpretations with soul and passion, and has had the privilege to play with some of SoCal’s finest accompanists, including James Moody, Irving Flores, and Ed Kornhauser.
With a repertoire of upwards 300 songs in English, Spanish, Portuguese and French, and fluent in the styles of Swing, Blues, Bossa Nova, Boleros and Funk, Kaylee undoubtedly has a song for everyone. And with the flexibility of a duo, trio, and upwards of a sextet, Kaylee’s group can accommodate and elevate any space.
Daugherty’s favorite part of performing is bringing joy to her audiences. Her music makes kids dance and gives older folk a sigh of nostalgia. Kaylee is personable and interactive with her audiences, and, by inviting them into her musical world, builds a sense of community within each venue.
