Liner Note Author: Soledad O'Brien. Recording information: Esplanade Studios (03/23/2014-03/25/2014). Photographer: Greg Miles. Vocalist Dee Dee Bridgewater's 2015 effort, Dee Dee's Feathers, is a vibrant jazz showcase that pays homage to the history of New Orleans and marks the tenth anniversary of Hurricane Katrina. A collaboration between Bridgewater, New Orleans trumpeter Irvin Mayfield, and the New Orleans Jazz Orchestra (NOJO), Dee Dee's Feathers was recorded at Esplanade Studios, a historic 1920s church turned music studio in heart of the Treme neighborhood of New Orleans. With a band led by Mayfield and guest appearances from such New Orleans luminaries as keyboardist Dr. John and percussionist Bill Summers, the album finds Bridgewater combining her love of New Orleans' musical past with the Crescent City's vibrant present. Included on Dee Dee's Feathers are such cuts as "Big Chief," "What a Wonderful World," "Saint James Infirmary," "Come Sunday," "Congo Square," and more. ~ Matt Collar
