Now that the Grammy Awards have whipped-up our annual feast of mainstream musical genius, perhaps we can nibble on a lil' "off the beaten path" boogie.
Nominated for a Grammy in 2011 for the song "Orion," Carolyn Malachi has yet to break into the musical mainstream. Malachi, a DC native and great-granddaughter of legendary jazz pianist John Malachi*, effortlessly blends Soul, Jazz, Hip-Hop and Spoken Word to produce a deliciously creative mix. Think Meshell Ndegeocello 2.0. Get on the bandwagon now, because it's running out of room with quickness!
She is an ungodly talent!!! Though it's snowing outside, everything will be "All Right." Sing Ms. Malachi!
Until we rendezvous...
Peace!!!
*For those unfamiliar with John Malachi, he was part of perhaps the most legendary band introduction in musical history...the incomparable Sarah Vaughn's live introduction on the song, "Shulie-a-bop." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CsCFuezeezE
