I saw her quartet tonight. It was bass, drums, piano, and Esperanza on acoustic bass and electric fretless bass. They did original music as well as tweaked some standards like Nina Simone, and a beautiful Body and Soul (the best Ive probably ever heard). This woman, I think she's in her 20s, is the most fabulous new jazz musician Ive heard in a long time. it is exciting. Her voice is fluent and strong and right on the money. This is a woman whose career is set in stone. I think she is going to be known as one of our most jazz artists ever. I think she already is.
