KVLU Interview + 2 Gigs
Hi folks: 2 things--first, want to hear my dulcet tones talking about my CD and my career so far, plus my mumblings about jazz philanthropy and the State of the Gig? Here's an interview I did last week with KVLU's Jason Miller. It also features a live cut from our CD release show with guest vocalist Lorin Benedict. Check it out:
