Today at around 2.30pm I’ll be chatting with Susan Gai Dowling on her radio show on Eastside Radio (89.7FM). They are now streaming live, so check it out; www.eastsidefm.org. Very exciting news for people who to date have not had good radio reception, due to that large grey obstacle called the city. It’s also very flattering to be a guest at a radio station that is so committed to high quality jazz and arts. Susan Gai Dowling is the real deal too. I saw her performing recently at the Paddington RSL, with her sextet. I always enjoy Susan’s phrasing and the emotional honesty in her singing, and of course the swinging accompaniment. (Only a singer can get away with calling Bernie McGann, Carl Dewhurst, Brett Hirst and John Pochee “accompaniment”. Actually, I don’t think I’m going to get away with that at all).
