by Edward Blanco
Whenever the names of legendary vocalists like Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, and Edith Piaf are used to describe a new singer, it's clear that there's something special about that artist.

by Dan Bilawsky
Jazz and rock audiences, at their core, often expect two very different things when they attend a live performance.
