“Feeling Good is a peek into my life through song,” she explains. “Since our preview back in 2014 at Joe's Pub we have been reworking the material to include original music as well as new arrangements starting with the title song, arranged by Michael Olatuja. I’ve been flirting with the idea of a concert that explores my life for three years. I am currently working on my memoir and this process has inspired this evening of music. We use Jazz, Rock and Soul, along with contemporary Broadway compositions to take you on this journey.”
Show time is 8 PM.
