Album Notes

“Lebo is in excellent form throughout” - Scott Yanow, L.A. Jazz Scene

 “…a truly talented singer, a fresh voice on the scene.” - Jacques Emond, host “Swing is in the Air”, CKCU-FM 93.1 - Programming Director Ottawa International Jazz Festival

 “ She has that classic jazz embolic style as she cavorts with the violin and guitar and those savoy stylings. Ms Lebo is a lovely traditionalist spinning melodies haven’t heard quite like this since those romantic, turbulent thirties and forties.” - Dick Crocket, THE VOICE 88.7 FM, Sacramento, CA

 "Lawrence Lebo creates her own sound." - Pat Lewis, Music Connection Magazine
