I had been giggin' singing jazz for many years in Tokyo before the idea came to me to create a KICKSTARTER project to create a CD. The setting is the Park Hyatt Tokyo's New York Bar on the 52nd floor. The same setting for the film "Lost in Translation" with Bill Murray. To this day many people come in to check out this famous space with spectacular views and food!

The band I was given while I was under contract were some of the best Jazz musicians in town. Jonathan Katz on piano, Brent Nussey on Bass and last but not least Tod Carver on guitar! These stellar musicians give me the harmonic foundation to create the melodic wonder that fill my nights, and the crowds, every night I work with them.
I wanted everyone to taste the magic of what that is like......so I asked my friends, family and fans to contribute to making that happen with this vibin' album. And together, as a coming together of energy, we did it!!!

So please enjoy a night out in the big city of Tokyo with a New York vibe,
(I'm a native and New Yorker and so is Jonathan the piano player) ;-)
listening to some great jazz where jazz is loved and revered.
