In a vibrant and heartfelt conversation, multi-instrumentalist and smooth jazz favorite Vincent Ingala joins Carlaya, “The Queen of Flow,” on 91.5 Jazz and More to talk about his upcoming show at Sunset Station and his deep connection to Las Vegas.

Vincent shares his excitement about returning to the entertainment capital of the world, where he feels a personal and musical connection—especially as a lifelong Elvis fan. He opens up about his journey with the saxophone, inspired by Vegas lounge legend Sam Butera, and how the instrument became his primary voice after experimenting with drums, guitar, and keys.

The conversation dives into what fans can expect at his live performance, including a mix of original tracks, soulful slow jams, and covers like his take on Alexander O’Neal’s “If You Were Here Tonight.” Vincent also shines a spotlight on his talented band, featuring musicians from across the country and even Italy, including percussionist Pablo Batista, who played with Grover Washington Jr.

Listeners will also hear about Vincent's latest album, his plans for meet-and-greets, and his belief in the lifelong nature of music as a calling.
