Did the Great American Songbook stop being written in 1959? Russ Lorenson doesn’t think so, and has a show full of "new standards" to prove his point that well-crafted songs with meaningful lyrics are still being written today, just waiting to be interpreted by thoughtful, jazz-inspired vocalists.
With Bay Area jazz favorites Kelly Park on piano and Terrence Brewer on guitar, Standard Time explores the Great American Songbook of the New Millennium, featuring songs written within the last 20 years by composers such as Harry Connick, Jr., John Pizzarelli, Michael Feinstein, Kelly Park, Ray Jessel, Bob Levy, Andrew Lippa, Peter Cincotti - and even Russ Lorenson himself!
