Jaime Lozano & The Familia
One terrific singer after another took the stage with passion and presence.
Jane Scheckter: Before There Were Virgins
Her phrasing, even when she was singing jazz or swing, always communicated the lyrics.
Joe Iconis & Family: Meditations in an Emergency
Daredevil artist Joe Iconis has a wingspan as big as his talent.
Sophia Ramos: No Parental Guidance
Sophia Ramos is a galvanic, multi-talented writer/performer and survivor.
Laura and Linda Benanti: Mothers Know Best
Both delivered material at a loud, muscular level no matter what the lyrics expressed.
Hilary Kole
Sang with pristine control. Her signature scat poured out headlong; she could give lessons.
Klea Blackhurst: A Brand New Evening with Klea Blackhurst
Unabashedly candid and persuasive, unique in voice and presentation.
Eric Comstock & Barbara Fasano: Painting the Town
Solos and duets performed with original arrangements on which this talented couple left their stamp.
