If I have any aspirations as a musician, it's to sound like Billie Holiday on whatever I am playing. She had a 10 note range. She knew the power of limits in that, you are limitless in your capacity to melt hearts.
I was concieved to a Nina Simone record, live at Carnegie Hall. She's in my blood.
I have high standards.
When I hear Billie in my car, which is where I listen to music (89.9 wkcr baby!), time simply stops. Sometimes here in NYC I just need to pull over and let the song finish. Sometimes I just need to be late. That's the gift she keeps on giving me.
