Angela Verbrugge is a charismatic vocalist based in Victoria and Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. She was recently named JazzTimes' Magazine Female Jazz Vocalist of the Year in the Readers' Poll. 

A former actress, Angela turned to her passion of performing the best of Great American Songbook, vocal jazz and bossanova favourites. She also writes songs in that style, and has a knack for finding hidden gems in the traditional pop and vocal jazz songbooks.

With a voice that is at once both innocent and sultry, she exudes playfulness and passion that takes audiences on a journey to their own memories of love and excitement, longing and broken-heartedness. She calls upon beloved composers like Porter, Gershwin, Kern and the repertoire of beloved songstresses and crooners of the past while adding her own signature flair and polish.

Angela customizes her program for each show, whether she is performing contemporary jazz at Frankie's Jazz Club in Vancouver, the historic home for jazz in Toronto, the Rex, exploring the Great American songbook at the Victoria International JazzFest in her hometown, or gracing the stage at the Vancouver International Film Festival or around the world in Japan, Germany, Luxembourg, Türkiye, the UK or France.
