Gretchen Parlato gave us an interview in May. She talked about:
-Her new (third) album, co-produced with Robert Glasper
-Her family background and childhood in LA
-Why she's singing less in Portuguese, but how it still affects what she does
-Rhythm – being the anchor and being the soloist
-Working with the celebrated guitarist from Benin, Lionel Loueke
-Herbie Hancock's “Butterfly,” which has become something of a signature tune for her.
-Laughter – and comedy videos
THE FULL INTERVIEW IS ON THE KINGS PLACE WEBSITE
Gretchen Parlato will be appearing at Kings Place on November 18th in the London Jazz Festival
