Beth Duncan
Born:
A treasure trove of melodic invention, distilled emotion, and vivacious wit, the American Songbook can also serve as a gilded cage, confining jazz vocalists to oft-interpreted material written during the first half of the 20th century.

A collection of songs written by Oakland-based composer and lyricist Martine Tabilio, I’m All Yours is Duncan’s third release, and it’s a persuasively swinging project brimming with smart new songs that deliver many of the pleasures found in American Songbook standards

by C. Michael Bailey
As fertile and durable as the Great American Songbook is, like fossil fuels it is not an infinite and forgiving loam.

At least tangentially, it also serves as the creative spark, igniting new, more progressive composition. This is where Sacramento-based ...
