I went with Canadian singer Renée Yoxon tonight to see pianist Helen Sung‘s Electric Company with guitarist Tom Guarna, bassist Dezron Douglas and drummer Rudy Royston. Here are my photos and tweets from the show.

“This version of ‘Love For Sale’ is a little too fusiony for me, though.”
“@reneeyoxon just referred to this type of fusion as ‘man jazz.’ Let’s get that trending, OK? #manjazz”
