The picture up there is a happy moment from my recent trip to Mexico, where I spent a fantastic week relaxing, sightseeing, and eating with my parents, who live in Baja.  More pictures after the jump!  In the meantime, here's what's coming up this month:  

DUCHESS is getting ready to kick off a four-week residency back where it all began, the 55 bar.  We'll be there March 16, 23, 30, and April 6, working out new material for our upcoming album, which we're set to record this spring!  We're very excited and hope you'll come out and see us.

I'm looking forward to Easter Sunday, when I'll be joined by the ever-swinging John Merrill (guitar) and Noah Garabedian (bass) for some music-making at L'Amico, a wonderful new restaurant helmed by my friend, the very talented chef/owner Laurent Tourondel.   

The elegant and insightful vocalist, Gabrielle Stravelli, and I had a wonderful time chatting for her podcast, Big Modern Music, and our episode is now available for FREE download on iTunes!  I was also delighted to see this wonderful review of my recent Mezzrow appearance with Ehud Asherie. 

Spring is just around the corner! For a complete list of my upcoming performances, please visit www.hilarygardner.com.  

Love, Hilary
