New York based vocalist Teri Roiger recently released her fourth recording as a leader, "GHOST OF YESTERDAY: Shades of Lady Day", a heartfelt tribute to Billie Holiday. Since Ms. Holiday provided the initial spark that led to a lifelong commitment to jazz, this one is especially personal to Teri.
"GHOST OF YESTERDAY: Shades of Lady Day" was released on Dot Time Records on Billie Holiday's birthday (April 7, 2017). Liner notes by Kabir Sehgal. "The multi-faceted brilliance of Billie Holiday is served up sizzling hot by the multi-talented Teri Roiger - a match made in jazz heaven!" - Kabir Sehgal, author & Grammy-winning producer.

The new recording features Wayne Hawkins (piano), John Menegon (bass), Steve Williams (drums) + The Visitors: Roswell Rudd (trombone), Jay Collins (baritone and tenor sax), Steve Gorn (clarinet & bansuri flute), Rebecca Coupe-Franks (trumpet), Mark Dziuba (guitar) & Abdou Mboup (percussion).
