About Me

Myspace LayoutsI'm just a girl who fell in love with the music of the 1920s and 30s. I love the composers from that time period; the clever lyrics and the beautiful melodies. I don't want the music from that era to disappear. I do a lot of listening to old 78 records. I think the people who are the best at performing music of this genre are the ones who have done the most listening. I work with great musicians who play wonderful jazz behind my vocals. We've recorded 4 CDs. I have regular gigs in New York and do concerts and jazz festivals all over.
