"The stories are blue, but not overwhelmingly melancholic. These are soft blues and a snapshot of their life, a performance of contemporary jazz."

Many thanks to O's Place Jazz Magazine, Published by: D. Oscar Groomes for his review of our new CD, "Song" by Joanie Pallatto & Bradley Parker-Sparrow. Summer 2025 Issue 31.2

O's Notes: Joanie and Bradley are Mr. & Mrs., co-owners of Southport Records, producers of over 150 recordings, and happily reside in Chicago. They are living their dream. Their Song is acoustic piano from Bradley Parker-Sparrow with voice from Joanie Pallatto. The stories are blue, but not overwhelmingly melancholic. These are soft blues and a snapshot of their life, a performance of contemporary jazz. “Tico’s Lust”, “Jobim”, “Tomorrow”, and “Monk Is Drunk” are some of many stories to enjoy.
