Local Musician Spotlight: Terri Jo Jenkins Candace LeGault Share
One of three daughters of an accomplished pianist and a fine singer, Terri Jo started her professional musical life at about age 10 singing three-part harmony with her sisters at a Nebraska county fair. That first show included “Mairzy doats and dozy doats and liddle lamzy divey.” There was no direct leap to jazz. Rather, she has lived a life of all kinds of music that finally brought her to Denver and her much-deserved respect as a jazz singer.
Through high school, she composed, sang contemporary folk and played her guitar, influenced by Joni Mitchell and others. Her first CD was called “The Dodson Sisters,” recorded when she was just 14 years old.

… Virtual Festival Will Have It All, Including Dr. Seuss in Yiddish, from February 25-28, 2021
SOUTH FLORIDA – The holiday of Purim has often been called “the Jewish Carnavale,” with the joys of song, laughter and drama folded into one, like tangy, fruit-filled
hamantashen. That’s just the recipe for a Yiddishe Taam that the Yiddishkayt Initiative (“YI Love Jewish”) will be serving up at its first annual International VIRTUAL YI Love Yiddishfest – Purim Edition, scheduled on-line from February 25-28.
Virtual visitors of all ages will be able to step right up for a wide range of FREE performances, concerts, readings and interviews featuring major award-winning American and International entertainers as celebrants worldwide recount the saving of the Jews from a threatened massacre during the Persian Empire in the Fifth Century BC.

Another postponement. Another cancellation. Another suspension. These recent developments at three of Mobile’s biggest music venues weren’t exactly positive, but they do give some insight into the seething behind-the-scenes activity that will, eventually, bring back large-scale entertainment events.
Maybe it’s early to call it a consensus, but an expectation seems to be emerging: The good old days of going out to catch a nationally known act with an energetic full house of 1,000 to 10,000 fellow fans probably won’t return before summer. It likely will be fall before the phrase “back to normal” can be deployed without irony, and possibly spring 2022 before top-tier arena concerts are back on the menu.
