Morning Start: Esperanza Spalding

Website/MySpace/Facebook/Twitter/YouTube

Morning all.  Today is hump day, and I bring forth an artist that has a light, Jazzy, and fun vibe to it.  Her name is Esperanza Spalding. As a 23 year old acoustic double bass musician, you know she is something special.  She is from Portland, Oregon and start playing when she was 15.  Her first album “JunJo” was released in 2006, and her 2nd and my favorite, “Esperanza” was released in 2008.  Now, some songs are in Spanish, and some are english.  As with great music, it speaks through the language barriers, and you will enjoy.
