She received critical acclaim in 2007 for her starring role in an off-Broadway musical based on Woody Allen vignettes, “Murder Mystery Blues," where she displayed her versatility: in one show, she acted, sang, danced, and played the piano.
In 2008 she released her debut album “Introducing Andromeda Turre” which received a Grammy nomination for Best Vocal Jazz Album the same year.
