Sonya Jason

Born: January 10, 1963

"She's a hundred pounds of rompin' stompin' sax. She's so hot her horn smokes. Her first CD, Tigress, (Warner Music Discovery) defines mood, zest, verve and sizzling straight-on jazz from the hip. Some elements of jazz never change, but Sonya Jason picks up the leftovers and moves them into her own dimension."

-- Jan Holland for Venice: The L.A. Arts and Entertainment Magazine
