“My latest album "Higher" (2019) on ArtistShare is a slight departure for me in that the song cycle consists of art songs played by jazz musicians (as well as sung by classical singers). It might have been a difficult album to promote but Scott started off strong using his experience and connections. Very quickly the critics gave us a listen and ended up supporting us overwhelmingly with stellar previews and reviews. Then we had a year of touring to wonderful venues here and in Europe. We filled every venue, large and small, with Scott being attentive to my concerns for cities, venues where they might not be as familiar with my music. Amazing! We have had a huge year and these
