Description
Years ago, during a gospel Sunday finale at the Mammoth Lakes Jazz Jubilee, vocalists Sherry Colby and Yve Evans clasped hands on stage during their soulful performance. I loved their contrasting skin tones. It struck me then, as it does now, how music with all its subtlety has immense power to unite people, spread love, bring connection and peace. I am forever grateful to have photographed the MLJJ event for over a decade and to showcase the amazing talents of many musicians on the event's souvenir posters.
