Dawn Clement

**Dawn Clement** is a versatile jazz pianist, composer, and vocalist known for her expressive playing and warm, lyrical storytelling. Rooted in the Seattle music scene, she’s built a reputation as a dynamic collaborator, working with icons like Jane Ira Bloom, Matt Wilson, and Nicole Mitchell. Her recent releases—like the lush *Delight*, the introspective *Forgive Me*, and the playful *Retro: Christmas with Dawn*—showcase her knack for blending modern jazz harmonies with intimate emotional resonance. Whether leading her own projects (like the trio effort *Clement/Kovalcheck/Hamar*) or reimagining holiday classics (*Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer*), she infuses every note with authenticity and joy. When she’s not recording or touring, Clement channels her passion into education, mentoring the next generation of jazz artists.
