We're thrilled to start our Women of Jazz month with Gabrielle Goodman. She has been a hard-working example of the respect that females bring to the genre. She grew up in a house of Jazz as well as the classics. She sang in Gospel choirs and heard the sounds of the street that gave her the extra edge in soulful delivery. And she brings all of that to a sumptious table, served with champagne and cavier. That's what she brings to the genre of Jazz. That's why she has been sought all these years as the perfect element of class and style to any noteworthy endeavor. We can't wait to hear what's next! As the columnist Stephen Israel wrote, "I have heard the new voice of Jazz - and it's Gabrielle Goodman." As the saying goes - I know THAT'S right :)
