Join me this Friday, May 22nd, at The Jazz Station in Eugene for an amazing night of vocals with my dear friend Jamie Shew! We have some old LA buddies playing with us John Storie on guitar and Matt Mayhall on drums, joined by Tyler Abbott on bass. Get your tickets now! …la la la. jazzstation

A little bit of “Maybe” from Annie. 🎹…La La La.

A little clip of “Blue Skies” with Swing Shift Jazz Orchestra last fall. I was honored to wear a beautiful jacket given to me by the great Carmen Bradford, who bought this jacket while shopping with Ella Fitzgerald (they both bought the same jacket) while on tour with Count Basie in Japan. She passed it along to me and wearing it feels like a powerful hug from the lineage of this amazing music. It was a beautiful night singing some of Ella’s songbook.💙 🎶 …la la la.

Corner Pocket (aka Until I Met You) written by Freddie Green in 1955, lyrics by Donald Wolf, made famous by the Basie band and Sarah Vaughan in 1961. Manhatten transfer won the Grammy for this song in 1981. I also love the vocal version by Joe Williams in 1985.

Also, I hate doing dishes after a gig. This was the night I shared a show with China Forbes of Pink Martini. It was a really fun night! I’m so tired in this video, it was a long drive. You can tell my lashes are heavy, but it’s hard to wind down after being on stage. I was still decompressing. Anyway, I thought I’d share this cute tune. Hahaha💕…la la la.
