Kyle Asche

Brilliant guitar player, Kyle Asche, has been playing with me over the last several years and I love it! We recorded a demo together in the same vain as Ella Fitzgerald and Joe Pass. Check him out!
Juli Wood - Saxophonist

Juli is a phenominal saxophonist and I love sharing a stage with her! (She sings great, too!) Check out her sounds here and the great pics!!
Dan Effland

Another one of Chicago's best guitarist. Love working with him!

Deirdre Fellner & The Whole of Soul
www.fixintowail.com
I had the pleasure of sharing a stage with Deidre and she is awesome! This chick can sing and I love her! I have two of her CD's and they are my absolute fave's. I listen to them all the time! I know 'SOUL' by heart!! I'm getting tingly just thinking about it! Outstanding lyrics combined with killer music topped with Deidre's voice...yummy!! You MUST have these CD's in your collection. Run like the wind and get them now!!!
Diana Leigh & Crazy Rhythm
www.swingcraze.com/diana/crazyrhythm/home.html
I first met Diana in Ithaca, NY in 1999. But over the last few years we've been able to see her pretty regularly when we play in the Ithaca area. Here's yet another chick with some serious chops!! She sat in with my band and was scattin' her little head off, putting me to shame!! Her band plays all over the east coast. And we're working on getting them here in Chicago! Their style of jump, swing and jazz is awesome and they have another CD you should have in your library!
Melissa Martin & The Mighty Rhythm Kings
www.mightyrhythmkings.com
I met Melissa when we were playing in Philly in 2003. She came to our show on her off night which shows you right there she is a major sweetheart! I got her new CD, 'On The Mark,' and it smokes! This is how rhythm and blues should be played! Melissa is this beautiful little white girl with a giant voice! It's big and bold and her band really groves.
Monika Herzig Acoustic Project
www.acmerecords.com
Based in Indianapolis, IN, Monika's band is the bomb! I joined her and her group at the Penrod Arts Festival and wow, she tickles those ivories with passion and wisdom! It was my pleasure to join them. If you're in their neighborhood, they are a MUST to check out!!
Swing Nouveau
www.swingnouveau.com
Milwaukee's hottest big band. I have performed and recorded with this crazy band and they are great! Check them out when you can! These wacky kids rock my world!
Many talented gals here. I have got to host my own 'Toast to the Diva' night 'cause I'd sure have a fabulous lineup!
