As if having three nights to perform over Valentine’s Day weekend at The Black Cat wasn’t enough, I had the pleasure of singing to the most warm and engaged audiences who traveled near and far to see me! The staff at Black Cat was absolutely amazing and they made sure I was comfortable and taken care of. And I had the honor of sharing the stage with four talented Bay Area based musicians: Dr. Terrence Elliot (piano), Dr. Ron Moton (saxes and flute), Arlington Houston (upright bass) and Michael Spencer (drums).

I sang a few of my favorite standards (Save Your Love For Me, Feeling Good, Senor Blues, I Have A Dream…) as well as some of my originals (Evolution, Go High, Going Nowhere, Blue Chords… ) It was a wonderful 3 evenings full of beautiful music, stretched solos, improvisation, and emotion. It is always a delight to travel to do what I love, and being back in my hometown made it all the more sweeter.

Thank you San Francisco. Thank you Bay Area! Until next time… “go high” It was a wonderful 3 evenings full of beautiful music, stretched solos improvisation.
