"Since I Fell For You"

The Martinsville, Indiana High School "Mersey Quartet” include alumni who are also my private students; two are brothers; on bass, Derek Hogan; on drums, Devon Hogan. They are the only two siblings at MHS to win the national "Louis Armstrong Jazz Award", plus the local "Milton J. Stewart Director's Award".
Lin Bianchi, in my humble opinion as a professional jazz musician, is one of the best female jazz vocalists to ever come through MHS. Her talent shines through in her performance of this Lenny Welch signature song. It was our good fortune for her to move here in her junior year from a high school that discouraged popular music. She blossomed in the freedom she found under MHS Choral Director Tim James.
As a group we plan on learning more standards and posting them here for your enjoyment.
