Tansy is the brainchild of Will Feinberg and McKenna Alicia. Feinberg, a native of Detroit, and Alicia, a native of Oakland, met in New Orleans in 2017 where they began playing together in the city's music scene.

After a period of contributing to each other's own original projects, they felt themselves being pulled together by their collaboration. McKenna and Will spent the next eighteen months together writing and honing their sound.

Backed by a powerhouse band of some of the city's rising stars, Tansy recorded their debut album, Full Bloom and released it to critical acclaim in April 2020.

Since releasing Full Bloom, Tansy has been hard at work writing for their next release, planned for Summer 2021.

Influenced by the music of Esperanza Spalding, Robert Glasper Experiment, Moonchild, and Norah Jones; Tansy synthesizes the warmth of a classic RnB sound with the bold  harmonic and melodic statements of today's jazz.

The end result is a fresh sound that will appeal to a wide variety of listeners while leading the way forward in contemporary vocal jazz.
