Alemay Fernandez gig

Jasmine and I went to this coming home gig of a homegrown jazz singer, herself a Mass Comm grad. She showed her versatility with R&B, jazz standards, Top 40s, and even TV themes from the 80s. Fantastic value, and the band was outstanding. The bassist (Joshua Wan) even played an entire song by himself. The keyboardist plays for a-Mei. The drummer switches limbs and time signatures like nobody's business. Boy those hands are fast. The guitarist explores the complete versatility of the Strat.

All in all, a great, cosy journey into what music makes Alemay Fernandez tick.
