      We learn so much from friends’ comments and suggestions. Please keep on sharing!

    Tierney Sutton would be a wonderful addition:

    “A three-time Grammy nominee for “Best Jazz Vocal Album”… Tierney tours extensively in the US and throughout the world and has headlined in recent years at Carnegie Hall, The Hollywood Bowl, The Kennedy Center and Jazz At Lincoln Center… Tierney’s voice can often be heard on film and television soundtracks including The Academy Award nominated film “The Cooler” as well as on television commercials (BMW, Green Giant, Yoplait Yogurt, Coke).”
