Masterful pianist Tammy Hall's soulfulness permeates the sound of the group with her "rich, emotional quality that is evident on everything she does." (Marian McParthland). Versatile bassist and composer Aaron Germain contributes his depth of musical knowledge, attention to detail and beautiful groove to the mix. Master drummer Sylvia Cuenca is active on the New York jazz scene, constantly on stage with musical legends who value her creative, swinging and magnificent playing. Special guest vocalist Tiffany Austin is simultaneously deeply rooted and inventive with her classy yet irreverent vocal expressions.
