Madeleine Peyroux Brings Timeless Jazz to Dimitriou's Jazz Alley in Seattle

Madeleine Peyroux Brings Timeless Jazz to Dimitriou's Jazz Alley in Seattle

Seattle’s Dimitriou's Jazz Alley welcomes the sultry, smoky tones of Madeleine Peyroux for four unforgettable nights starting Thursday, March 12, 2026, at 7:30 PM (PDT). Performing at 2033 6th Ave, Seattle, WA, Peyroux will be joined by her trio featuring Jon Herington (guitar and vocals) and Barak More (double bass and vocals), delivering intimate, soulful jazz in a setting renowned for connecting audiences with world-class talent.

For over three decades, Peyroux has captivated audiences worldwide with her signature blend of blues, vintage jazz, French chanson, and contemporary storytelling. From busking in the streets of Paris as a teenager to selling out global concert halls, she has mastered the art of creating music that resonates, uplifts, and builds community.

Reflecting on her place in jazz history, Peyroux shares, “I am part of this great Jazz story, a long tradition of music greats… from Ella Fitzgerald and Billie Holiday to Allen Toussaint and countless others… I am here to continue the story.” Her journey from Parisian streets to international acclaim began early, touring Europe at just 15 with The Lost Wandering Blues and Jazz Band, learning firsthand how music can stop people in their tracks and forge a deep connection between performer and audience.

Her 1996 debut Dreamland earned immediate recognition, with critics comparing her to Billie Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald, and featured renditions of classics like Fats Waller’s “I’m Gonna Sit Right Down and Write Myself a Letter” and Piaf’s “La Vie En Rose”. But it was her 2004 album Careless Love that cemented her as a jazz superstar, with standout tracks like Leonard Cohen’s “Dance Me to the End of Love” and a gold-certified blend of blues, vintage jazz, and chanson.

Peyroux’s current trio brings a fresh, intimate energy to her performances. Guitarist Herington notes, “This ‘reduced’ format revealed a special, quiet chemistry… it magically allowed a kind of liberating genre-bending… and forced a new depth of intimacy and vulnerability to surface in our live performances.”

With a 2026 “We Are America” tour underway, Peyroux is in peak form—confident, curious, and committed to honoring the jazz legacy while creating honest, direct connections with her audience. For Seattle audiences, this is a rare chance to experience a performer whose artistry spans generations, blending storytelling, history, and raw emotion into every note.
