‘I Go Zoom’ is pure Kadderly…

Mary Kadderly is one of the city’s top singers. She performs regularly, she teaches extensively and she always surrounds herself with the best instrumentalists. A pianist herslf, Kadderly has the respect of musicians as well as a loyal audience.

So we expect a lot from the jazz and pop singer’s second CD ‘I Go Zoom.’ She wrote most of the music, some of the lyrics and it’s all her concept. The arrangements (by producer pianist Steve Christofferson and guitarist Tim Ellis) support and burnish her singing with a confident pop sound that’s smooth and intelligent.

It’s a gorgeous musical package for songs built on a vision of love and loss this is illuminated by a wisdom both hopeful and bittersweet.
