Hi Michael! Thank you very much! Yes, Kandace has a rich voice!

[@ConcreteJungleJazzClub]

The magic of her voice and the beauty of this arrangement is only matched by the surreal glamour of the faces in the audience. We need to reclaim this feeling. 🎶🙌

[@winstonwolfe5733]

Fantastic WDR once again and brilliant interpretation by Kandace (my favorite sung rendition by far). I am also amazed and pleased that very often, when arrangers want to bring a funky latin feeling to a tune, they'll use Señor Blues bass line.

[@chrissharkey9644]

Why don’t we celebrate this real music in the country instead of all the crap that passes as?

[@WDRBIGBAND]

We have no answer for that question. It depends maybe on music education?!
