Janis Mann

A Perfect Time: Drummers and Other Friends
[[Pancake Records]]

mann_aperfecttime“Great singer. Great feel. I haven’t heard anyone like Janis Mann in years.” —Roy Haynes. Inspired by legendary drummer Haynes, with whom she has performed, Janis conceived A Perfect Time, her fifth release, as a celebration of jazz drummers. “Mann, who originally hails from Brooklyn and now has settled in L.A., has a splendid instrument that owes as much to June Christy as it does to Sarah Vaughan. She possesses the unique ability to be simultaneously cool and sultry, to seem as crystalline as Baccarat’s finest yet smoky as a Dietrich film festival.” —JazzTimes.
