 Fay Victor often makes jazz versions of well-known compositions by Jimi Hendrix, The Kinks, The Doors, Randy Newman, Eric Dolphy. In late 1990s Fay began composing herself and in 2001 her debut album "Darker than Blue" was released on Timeless Records. Her lyrics touches upon broad topics and her melodies are natural and easy. Victor's signature style is all about original combination of traditional song forms and emotionally rich jazz improvisations. Fay's last album "Cosmos" (2007) was called "tough, gusty, brilliant" by jazz press. "It's a borderless, cacophonous, in-your-face experiment in tone poetry and free-form expression." - Christopher Loudon, JazzTimes. Fay Victor's projects combine jazz tradition, Ornette Coleman and late Coltrane-like improvisations giving a true feeling of musical flight. Victor has appeared at venues/festivals including the Bowery Poetry Cub, The Stone, Zebulon, Galapagos Art Space, Barbes, Tonic, the 55 Bar, The HOWL Festival and the River to River Festival.
