vocalist Tierney Sutton w/ Terry Trotter trio

A classic: As good as it gets!

In a world of overnight sensations, jazz vocalist Tierney Sutton’s success has come from the road less traveled. The variety of her material is consistently surprising, enriching, and perfectly served by her imaginative interpretation. The arch of her career is vast... Carnegie Hall - European Tours - film scores - Grammys - and probably every jazz joint known to man. Tierney never compromises and we all benifit, just because she stays true to herself. 

Not enough can be said about this classic trio. Messrs Trotter, Berghofer and Brinker represent the best of what L.A. (or anyplace else) has to offer. Pianist Terry Trotter is an extraordinary talent making an all too rare appearance. I personally could not be more excited about hearing him! Chuck Berghofer– he of the huge rich tone and propelling sense of relaxed power– is just plain one of the best time keepers in bassdom. And drummer Ray Brinker, long time cohort of Tierney’s, rounds out this trio to perfection.
