A couple of years ago jazz/blues singer Catherine Russell made a stop at KPLU for a live studio session that was amazing. So when she made time to drop in again recently, we were thrilled.
When it comes to singing, it seems there’s nothing she can’t do, but one of the things we love most about her is her ability to breathe new, vibrant life into old, sometimes almost forgotten songs. In this session she takes songs from the past and plops them right into the 21st century, reminding us that great music never dies.
