Singing All the Parts: The Vocal Dynamism of Portland’s Jimmie Herrod Jenni Moore

Portland's Jimmie Herrod lights up the Schnitz January 24 and 25 with the backing of the Oregon Symphony. Herrod, of Pink Martini and America's Got Talent fame, has vocals that soar like Aretha and sizzle like Billie, and we've got it on good authority that there's gonna be a Janet Jackson cover.
