Yep, she knows all the words… Accompanied by Mr Hirsh esq. on drums, Kip Dale on bass and meself on piano trying to keep up. Jazz at a frenetic pace is Risa’s forte, well tempered with some delightful ballads, and obscure (to most of us) Japanese toons thrown in for good measure.
This should be a good night, and the audience at Laika continues to grow. As it should, given the hot little set by Sevil last week, and Katerina the week before.
If you fancy a stroll down the beach end of Fitzroy Street St Kilda, and the weather is warm, drop in for a cocktail or a glass of vino. Steve at the door will welcome you in. For an extra five bucks, he will even ask for your ID.
Summer. Jazz. Cocktails. All good.
Risa Khodani with the B Team, from 8.00pm Friday 30th October at The Laika Bar, 9 Fitzroy Street, St Kilda.
