O’s Notes: Mary has a soft rich voice that she attaches to eleven fresh, unique arrangements of popular tunes and a few originals. She employs excellent musicians including Will Kennedy (d), Alex Acuña (perc) and Frank Martin (keyboards). She opens with the vibrant “Temptation” to set the stage. We also enjoyed the hip-hop infused “Too High” and “The Lamp is Low”. She concludes a good set with her own “Things My Mother Said” laced with lessons we could all use.
