Happy New Year Everyone! I am writing to you all from snowy Maine as I plan my move to New York City within the next couple of weeks...Almost as soon as I arrive, I will be performing at North Square, a wonderful intimate venue in Greenwich Village located in the Washington Square Hotel. Please tell your friends and family in NYC to come and support my NYC debut! This is a great place to listen to jazz vocalists. Roz Corral and others like Sasha Dobson perform regularly on Sunday afternoons, so if you are a fan of jazz vocals, don't miss this venue! I am very excited to be performing with an extraordinary duo: Paul Meyers on guitar and Santi Debriano on bass. They have been performing together for some time now and I am really honored that they will be on this date with me!
