Sheila Jordan:  “I met and heard Sheila Jordan in the 1960’s at a Greenwich Village NYC club. Tiny Tim was the featured artist on ukulele. She enticed me then with her story, lyrics, phrasing, perfect pitch and personalized style… I owe much of the phrasing in my jazz poetry to Sheila.‘’ Golda Solomon, “Medicine Woman of Jazz“

“Sheila Jordan is one of the jazz world’s best-kept secrets.” Blue Note

Cameron Brown:  "Cameron weaves stunning obbligato lines beneath Sheila [Jordan], sometimes driving the melody and rhythm, sometimes contrapuntal and creatively soloistic."  — Juul Antonissen, Juul's Halo (Belgium)

Saco Yasuma:  Ms. Yasuma’s hallmark is taking the audience on a journey that is stimulated by surprising touches that keep the listener perked and alert for what is coming up next.”  The New Times Holler!   www.sacoyasuma.com

Golda Solomon:  Poet Solomon...Think of it as Jack Kerouac revisiting the Mile High City and grabbing a sandwich at the New York Deli while in town.”  — Norman Provizer, Rocky Mountain News

PO’JAZZ at CORNELIA STREET is one big friendly party of good words, good sounds, and good food.”
Gladys Serrano, Mutable Music
