Tonight’s Best Bet

Giving the gift of music can inspire others, astound them or disappoint the giver when the recipient just doesn’t “get” it.  When it is much beloved and treasured music there is always an element of “letting in” others to a domain you feel is precious and elite. Paula Held is one of those musicians who inspires that brand of faithful admirers. Her first release, Drive (dedicated to Jeanette Walls, author of The Glass Castle), was an inspired masterpiece. Her vulnerable, jazzy, literate charms are bewitching. She will be at Linda’s Fine foods tonight. We sincerely hope, if you’ve never heard her, you’ll appreciate the heads up and if you have we hope you’ll forgive us for telling our little secret.
