The Jazz Session #613: Jo Lawry

Jo Lawry’s new trio album with Linda May Han Oh and Allison Miller is called Acrobats. In this interview, we talk about the selection of the band members and the repertoire; gender diversity in jazz; Jo’s years with Sting; and more. NOTES You can hear Jo’s 2008 episode of The Jazz Session here. In addition to the normal bonus episode (see below), members also get an additional 15 minutes of interview material with Jo that isn’t in the regular version of the episode because I try to keep them to 40 minutes. PATREON Become a Patreon supporter for $5 a month to get a bonus show called This I Dig Of You, on which the guest from the main episode talks about something non-musical that’s bringing them joy.  Jo talks about needlepoint. You’ll also get early access to every episode, a thank you on an episode, and behind-the-scenes news. Join at http://patreon.com/thejazzsession.
