"One of DC's treasures . . . She somehow turns songs from the 1960s and 1970s into jazz lushness. I heard her in Provincetown this summer and was wowed." - Andrew Sullivan/The Dish"Whatever she's performing, Clark gives each song a very personal interpretation that nevertheless recalls the very best of female jazz singers... By the time Clark concluded with Dusty Springfield's 'Just a Little Lovin', it seemed many wished the evening had just begun." - Times Square Chronicles "I never thought I'd hear a singer with the range, musicality, and command of tone and timbre that was Sarah [Vaughan] at her best, but now I have." - JazzTimes Chris Grasso, piano (all dates) Neal Miner, bass; Tony Jefferson, drums (Jan. 22) Bass TBA; Lenny Robinson, drums (Jan. 30, Feb. 1, 2) write your comments about the article :: © 2012 Jazz News :: home page |
