Catherine Russell will perform at the Olympia Theatre in Valencia, Spain on November 23, 2026. Russell is an American jazz and blues vocalist and pianist, known for her interpretations of classic jazz and blues standards alongside original compositions. Her style draws heavily from the traditions of artists like Bessie Smith, Billie Holiday, and Dinah Washington, characterized by a warm vocal tone, sophisticated phrasing, and arrangements that often incorporate elements of New Orleans jazz. She frequently performs with a small ensemble featuring piano, bass, drums, and occasionally horns.

The Olympia Theatre (Teatro Olympia) in Valencia first opened its doors in 1923. Originally designed as a variety theatre showcasing revues and operettas, it quickly became a prominent cultural venue in the city. The building’s architecture reflects the Art Deco style popular at the time of its construction. Throughout its history, the theatre has hosted diverse performances including theatrical productions, concerts, dance recitals and film screenings. Following periods of varying use and renovation efforts aimed at preserving its historical character, it continues to function as a significant performing arts space within Valencia's cultural landscape. It underwent substantial restoration work completed in 2023.
