Welcome to a new edition of the Neon Jazz interview series with Los Angeles-based Jazz Singer Luke Carlsen .. We talked in the Fall of 2020 during the COVID-19 about his newest 2020 Song What’ll I Do .. He has been a fan of jazz and big band music since childhood and began singing in the genre very early. While still in college, his big band professor, Albert Alva, introduced him to legendary jazz singer, Barbara Morrison, at Steamers Jazz Club in Southern California. She invited the young singer on the stage with her to sing “Fly Me to the Moon.” The crowd erupted with applause after his performance, and his career in jazz performance unfolded. It’s a great story .. Enjoy…
