My mother is a singer, still performs today; she's a jazz singer.
I spent well over a year on the road with Sarah Vaughn. That was amazing.
Still for fun, I play the drums, but I don't do much recording with them.
You never know what you find once you really get going.
It was very hard to get any records, so the only source for us to really hear what was happening was listening to the Voice of America. We would be taping all the broadcast and then sharing the tapes and talking about it.
Growing up, I was very much interested in jazz music.
