I have experienced Patricia’s sound

since I heard her on NPR-

over a decade ago.

Knocked

OUT.

Flushed.

Took

my

breath

away.

Still does the math on me!

I called Lowell immediately

– tellingWOW him about Patricia Barber!

Lowell booked her at the old Dakota Jazz Club in Bandana Square.

X

I “experience”  the experience every time Lowell books her.

The steam and heat of her sound and phrasing

along with her prescient ensemble

is languid,

subtle,

fierce,

lush,

incisive,

erotic,

vulnerable

and

tensile sexiness.
