Yvette Norwood-Tiger, an award-wining international jazz vocalist and the founder/director of Palm Beach International Jazz Festival is a Detroit, Michigan native whose vocal styling and texture are often compared to that of Ella Fitzgerald and Billie Holiday. In addition to jazz standards, her repertoire includes the Great American Songbook, bebop, and Latin jazz.
