Vocal Short List 16: Erin Bode
For nearly two decards, Midwesterner Erin Bode has quietly built a loyal audience and expanded her reach, both musically and in her fan base. She is now considered somewhat eclectic, as she sings not only jazz but some popular and folk music, as well. Not surprising, considering her musical upbringing included church choir, musical theatre, and some opera.
