Yesterday was big stuff…  The first day of Summer.  Make Music New York’s musical celebration of free, live music across NYC.  And Green in BKLYN’s hosting of said free, live music…

Early in the day, Carolyn Leonhart & Jay Leonhart joined us for some glorious jazz – on upright bass & vocals.  And, at the end of the day, Claire “Raji” Rodriguez stopped by with vocals & some classic Broadway tunes & folk music.

Lady & a Tramp’s Bloglife describes a moment with the Leonharts “as the sound of Jay’s combination upright bass & scat playing style peek(s) from under the warm blanket of sound (in which) his daughter Carolyn’s incredibly mesmerizing & soulful voice covers you.”  They also captured some great footage of the duo.  You can see & hear “Sometimes I Think” by clicking here or “The Bass Lesson” here.
