Pianist Matt Ray and vocalist Kat Edmonson are talented NYC musicians who, though they come from different worlds (Ray from cabaret and theater, Edmonson from Americana and pop), share a love of great American songwriters.
In this session they gave us a preview of their January 27 concert of Hoagy Carmichael's music at Jazz at Lincoln Center's Appel Room as part of the American Songbook series, performing three of his classic songs and describing what makes them special.
