Being influenced by some of the great jazz singers like Ella Fitzgerald, Doris Day, Peggy Lee, Kay Starr, Bea Wain, just to name a few, has led my creative need to make this album. I always found that when listening to these amazing artists, they always made me smile. This is exactly what I wanted to achieve with this album for my listeners. With some simple tunes involving a four piece band with vibes to some big band sounds and even a few with just piano or guitar, it will transport you back to the time when jazz was what everyone knew. So pour yourself a glass of bubbly, sit back and let the music make you smile!
