Musician 鈥檚 move from Seattle to Colorado wasn鈥檛 fueled by the typical cliched reasons. She came for the jazz. 鈥淚 had heard really good things about both the size and the quality of the jazz scene here,鈥� Edson told In The NoCo鈥檚 Erin O鈥橳oole. It is a scene defined by a sense of place 鈥� Edson says the local jazz world has a quintessential 鈥淐olorado vibe.鈥�
鈥淚t鈥檚 just a very positive thing to be part of,鈥� she said. Musicians challenge each other and clubs are committed to elevating local artists, Edson explained.
Edson is a bass player who heads her own jazz trio. Her latest project hits just right for this time of year 鈥� a collection of traditional Hanukkah songs reinterpreted in her signature jazz style. So, with Hanukkah beginning tonight at sundown, she joined us to talk about the genesis of this and more.
