Now's the Time: Sara Gazarek
Who's up for a road trip? Sara Gazarek performs Sunday in Topeka. Her wonderful performance in this simple video is capable of charming the skinny jeans off the most cynical of indie rock hipsters. Yet the California-based Gazarek does nothing to dismay the elder swing set. Karrin Allyson, Erin Bode and Norah Jones are advised not to look back- Gazarek is gaining on them.
Haha, yeah right. Erin and Sarah are like two totally different singers. I love Erin and I love Sarah for very separate reasons. So let's go to both shows, anyway. :)
Credit where credit's due- former Kansas Citian Lee Ingalls first brought Sara to my attention.
I sure hope Graham Parker doesn't find out about her, UL.
Anon 2:08- I'm planning on attending the annual jazz carol deal at Community Christian Church on Sunday afternoon, but email me if you're serious about making the drive.
Told ya so!
ReplyDeleteShe'll just meet some middle-aged rocker and lose momentum like Diana Krall. ;-p
ReplyDeletelet's do the road trip. and then hit up erin bode's set in the blue room on 12/19 and compare the two.
