"Armed with a smoothly authoritative tenor that suggests Michael Feinstein crossed with Mel Torme’, and the eclectically sophisticated taste of Mark Murphy, Jack Donahue is a guy worth keeping an eye on." -- Jazz Times
Bio / Background
“Armed with a smoothly authoritative tenor that suggests Michael Feinstein crossed with Mel Torme’, and the eclectically sophisticated taste of Mark Murphy, Jack Donahue is a guy worth keeping an eye on”
-Christopher Loudon, Jazz Times
“Possessed of a beautiful voice, taste beyond his years, and a wide-ranging intelligence, the handsome New Yorker shows that this sophisticated art form is not just alive and well but thriving.”
-Andrew Patner, Chicago Sun-Times
“Jack Donahue is a compelling singer blessed with a first-rate instrument — and he pays close attention to the lyrics and emotion of every song he sings.”
-Fred Hersch
“Donahue is one of the most entertaining and engaging young singers around. He's got good looks and a beautiful voice, (and) a genuine point of view."
-Waymon Wong, New York Daily News
“Handsome and personable, with his musical pores wide open, Mr. Donahue is going places fast.

-Rex Reed, New York Observer
"Leave it to an Irishman to make sorrow sing.”
-Time Out New York
“. . . Incantatory arabesques, . . . crystal clear in the narrative of a brief, hallucinatory encounter—Donahue responded to melody and lyrics with the same air of sensual surrender.”
-Matthew Gurewitsch, Los Angeles Times
“Donahue is a classic. Blessed with looks and an undeniably lovely voice. Lots of singers are striving to be the next Mel Torme. This guy’s a contender.”
-Jonathan Takiff, Philadelphia Daily News
“Donahue’s much-admired tenor voice is as warm as his personality . . . . Attractive shading more often associated with . . . Betty Carter, Dianne Reeves, and Shirley Horn. Chameleon-like, from dark and smoky to cool and husky.”
-Sharon McDaniel, Palm Beach Post
“Donahue has eclectic musical taste . . . an asset when you’re blending jazz . . . . Donahue swings gently and with a wry sense of humor. But it’s on the ballads . . . that Donahue’s supple voice soars.”
-Chad Jones, The Oakland Tribune
“…(Donahue writes) music and lyrics the Gershwins would have been proud to do. The lyrics were on a par with Johnny Mercer's.”
