Erica sure has a lot of ideas and gumption! Thanks for speaking with her, Michelle. Does she know pianist Ann Tappan, who moved to Bozeman/Manhattan, Montana from the Bay Area in '93? The JJA celebrates Ann as a Jazz Hero (https://jjajazzawards.org/2024-jazz-hero-ann-tappan/) along with 33 others, many of whom live in places we don't think of first for jazz -- Akron, Brattleboro, Charleston, Charlottesville, Hilton Head Island, the Baja California/San Diego borderland, Tucson.
This was and is amazing.
