Wonderful work from a real up-and-comer – a bright young jazz artist who seems to get better and better with each new record!

Woman Who Raised Me ... LP Blue Note, 2020. New Copy 2LP Gatefold ... $18.99
Maybe the straightest jazz set we've heard to date from Kandace Springs – a record that's got a great old school vibe overall, and the sorts of moody, dark-tinged qualities that takes us back to vintage material by Abbey Lincoln or Nina Simone – something we might not have said about ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Stones Throw, 2019. New Copy ... $9.99
