Nicole Heitger Quartet
Nicole Heitger Quartet played sets at 6 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. on Sunday, September 21, at Blue LLama Jazz Club in Ann Arbor. She sang a mix of Dixieland, swing, and bebop styles rooted in jazz classics from the 1920s to ’40s, backed by deep family jazz roots.
Nicole Heitger has been performing traditional jazz for over 30 years, blending Dixieland, swing, and bebop with syncopated rhythms from the 1920s to 1940s. Raised in a jazz family—her father Raymond Heitger leads the Cakewalkin’ Jass Band for more than 50 years—Nicole started singing with the band at sixteen. Influenced by Bessie Smith and Billie Holiday, she delivers classic jazz tunes with a powerful, blues-inflected voice. She brought this heritage to the Blue LLama Jazz Club for two shows on that Sunday evening.
