8:00 pm: Vocalist TERI ROIGER’s upcoming release “Ghost of Yesterday: Shades of Lady Day” on Dot Time Records reflects her love and deep appreciation for Billie Holiday, whose music provided the initial spark leading to Teri’s lifelong commitment to jazz, On this multi-dimensional project, Roiger celebrates and honors Lady Day’s legacy by showing the many facets of Billie – her ebullient joy, her rebellious spirit, her rich sensuality, and the depth of her blues. (Release date: April 7, 2017, to coincide with Billie Holiday's birthday.) Teri will also feature selections from her 2012 recording DEAR ABBEY: The Music of Abbey Lincoln....
