What's this style of jazz?

Hiya all again, just wondering what style of jazz contains a drummer, double bass, piano and vocalist…kind of like norah jones style…I’ve checked the internet and youtube but it’s so random, I know that it’s a quartet right? But of which style?thanks

Answer #1

It’s broad, would be classified as “contemporary jazz” or “vocal jazz”…according to the Wikipedia page for Norah’s album “Come Away With Me”…

But contemporary jazz can be a quartet, quintet, or sextet…the number of people in the band doesn’t necessarily indicate genre of music (but it can hint at it).
