Amanda Carr: concert & radio interview in LA today!

Praised by veteran jazz historian Nat Hentoff, Amanda Carr, one of my favorite jazz singers in the contemporary scene, appears tonight in Temecula (see details below).
But I woke up earlier today also to tell yoy that this morning she will be at KPFK.org promoting her upcoming CD.
