Jennifer and Bert were accepted into the Virginia Commission for the Arts (VCA) Tour Directory for 2010-2011.  Acceptance into this registry of elite touring artists in Virginia helps to promote the duo's music throughout Virginia.  Non-profit arts presenters who book the duo or one of their larger combos during the 7/1/10-6/15/11 season can receive an award of up to 50% of the booking fee from VCA.

Jennifer is quoted and she and Bert are featured artists in an article on the regional jazz scene in the July issue of The New Dominion magazine.  Check it out!

The October edition of "Virginia Living" magazine (VirginiaLiving.com) contains a nice review of "Alone Together." We invite you to pick up a copy of this beautiful magazine and support their choice of our CD for one of their editions.

Don Harrison writes: "Staunton-area singer Jennifer Kirkland has a breezy jazz lilt, and this cover song collaboration with guitarist Bert Carlson is an unpretentious chill-out record. Kirkland's stripped-down style is roomy enough to include Benny Goodman and the Beatles, not to mention Django Reinhardt, Irving Berlin and Neil Young. Carlson's riffing adds nice sound clusters - - although you do wonder what would happen if he let loose one time."

Maybe Don should come and hear us sometime, eh, if he wants to hear Bert let loose? Don, come on down!

"Alone Together" has been given a great review by columnist Bill Kramer in the Staunton News Leader! In a wonderful article on both the CD and the quintet concert at The Bowl, Theater at Lime Kiln, Lexington, VA, Kramer focuses on the duo's unique chemistry and sound. The article appears on pages 4-5 of the Go! section in the September 13, 2007 Daily News Leader.
