With the release of a new CD ‘Perennial Favorites’, Alison Odell and Julian Smedley offer innovative arrangements of some of their favorite songs from Swing Era composers and contemporary songwriters. Their intimate performances marry Alison’s fluid vocals and solid rhythm guitar with Julian’s violin, guitar, and vocals.

Alison sings “to spark memories for fans of the great standards and to introduce newcomers to these classics.” Her natural vocal delivery and unaffected respect for the lyric and melody take the listener to the heart of the song. Julian rounds out their innovative arrangements with exquisite vocal harmonies and inspired solos.

“A skilled singer who is also an excellent songwriter...Ms. Erickson has an appealing tone, does justice to lyrics and swings." - Scott Yanow, Los Angeles Jazz Scene
Award winning jazz vocalist and songwriter Nancy Erickson has been bringing her rich, melodic vocals to the Pacific Northwest Jazz scene for over 3 decades. Hailed as “one of our best contemporary singers – full of feeling, wit… and a thoroughly winning originality” (Michael Steinman – Jazz Lives), Nancy has released 3 solo albums on her Vital Flame Productions label. She has performed both internationally and throughout the Northwest. With influences like Nancy Wilson, Frank Sinatra, Dianne Reeves, and Peggy Lee, Nancy Erickson’s rich, mellow alto voice has been compared to Karen Carpenter yet her vocal range and smooth transitions from mezzo soprano to contralto have become her trademark. Nancy’s passion for jazz music is demonstrated in her pin-drop ballads and the rapport she has with her band and the audience. Nancy teaches in the Snohomish school district and is a board member of Seattle Women in Jazz.
