When I moved to Durango in 2014 and started dating my now husband Evan, he introduced me to the world of  Jazz.

​

He booked me for a Valentine's Day Jazz gig, which was the first professional gig I ever sang as a lead vocalist. 

​

I was terrified because the repertoire was really challenging and I thought I couldn't do it. 

​

"I wouldn't have booked you if I thought you couldn't sing the rep." Evan said to me.

​

I took on the challenge and learned some of the hardest music I have ever had to sing as a soloist, and I LOVED it. 

​

Ever since then, I have been a dedicated jazz musician. Mostly you'll see me out and about with my jazz duo, but we also do an occasional jazz trio or quintet gig. 

​

Hope to see you at our next performance!
