Felicia Carter June 23, 2008

“Here’s a double-disc collection by a contemporary jazz vocalist that not only warrants its length, it leaves you wanting more…Carter can cast a spell with her lyrics alone.”
-Mike Joyce, Washington Post

Jazz and blues vocalist Felicia Carter will be performing at Blues Alley with the FAB Trio and Donato Soviero on Monday, June 23, 2008, with two shows at 8 p.m. and 10 p.m.

With her remarkable twin-disc recording, "Feather/Step Lightly", Carter gives an affectionate nod to the double vinyl LP. The double CD format allows Carter to defy songwriting genres on "Feather", while showcasing her finesse with traditional jazz and blues on "Step Lightly". Recorded at NPR Studios in D.C., "Feather/Step Lightly" recently ranked #21 on the CMJ Jazz Chart, and was hailed by The Run-Off Groove as “an Americana masterpiece-in-the-waiting…one of the best albums of the first decade of the 21st century.”
