Hybrid Jazz From Trish Hennessey - with Cindy Bradley!

You know what?  I know this exquisite talent so well - this bio could probably be on repeat in my sleep!  And it's because yours truly adores Cindy Bradley.  Always did, always will.  She has never forgotten her deeply traditional Jazz roots when she first got a hold of that trumpet - at age NINE :)  Piano was her first instrument - and - by some happy universal alignment - she was forced to choose something ELSE for her role in the school band.  How fabulous for ALL concerned!

Her path chosen, Cindy got her Bachelor's at Ithaca College - near her native Buffalo.  Then, she moved on, effortlessly, to the New England Conservatory.  Where her teachers were stellar and her take away STUCK.  After graduation, she moved to New York City - where else for a young woman who called the state home?  What she learned via club dates, she took further - finding work with fellow excellence by way of high profile TV shows.  

In 2007, we heard her "Just a Little Bit."  Trippin N' Rhythm heard it, too - and signed her.  2009: "Bloom."  2011: "Unscripted."  And Jazziz Magazine LOVED that one!  2014: "Bliss."  Now here comes "Natural."  And the buzz is strong! 
So many of us are NOT surprised.  This is an inside-out beautiful woman who has enjoyed tremendous success as a multiple award-winning Jazz artist.  SIX #1 Billboard singles!  But - to balance that - and CB is all about the balance - she has also conducted dozens of workshops in high schools and colleges.  For students that are frequently seeing a trumpet for the FIRST time.  Cindy is committed to these young people.  You know what happens to those who do good?  It returns to you, tenfold :)  It's happening NOW - you're an Ear Witness!  See you on 4/6 at SIX Eastern.
