Album Review: Peak Experience Jazz - Live At Lucy's Place (8/10)

PEAK EXPERIENCE PHOTO 4Founded by bassist Mike Peak, this power-
house collective of top jazz musicians and 
vocalists has for years brought their joyous 
and soulful swinging energy to corporate
 events, local festivals and “Lucy’s Place,”
the name of the live performance room at
 Peak’s home. Driven by sax (Rickey Woodard, Ann Patterson), piano (Ron Kobayashi) and drum solos (Kendall Kay) galore and the exquisite, inviting vocals of Andrea Miller, this spirited concert, featuring a colorful mix of standards and originals, perfectly captures the ensemble’s eclectic pop/R&B meets jazz vibe. – Jonathan Widran
