”  Her range allows for well supported self-proclaimed “broad” sass on “Blues in the Night” to a misty and reflective “Lush Life.” Rather than trying to copycat Aretha Franklin’s noteworthy vocal pyrotechnics, McCammond  chose instead to plum the depth of the lyrics to Carole King/ Gerry Goffin/Jerry Wexler’s “(You Make Me Feel Like a) Natural Woman.”  It made us all want to volunteer to claim her from “the lost and found.” Saluting the holiday season with “Blue Christmas” was a smart choice.  Speaking of lush, Mark Burnell’s complex cascade riffs added richness to several of KT’s numbers and “Lush Life” in particular.

  “At Last” made for a smart encore as McCammond unfurled the layers of gratitude and discovery in the lyric paired with most excellent vocal power.
