Rebecca Martin is an artist that I have been a fan of for nearly 30 years. From her time in the cult NYC jazz rock band Once Blue to her 2022 release After Midnight (featuring Orquestra Jazz de Matosinhos and husband/bassist Larry Grenadier), I have been a fan. I have watched her grow and set the path to becoming what I would consider to be a jazz legend. She has all the makings to do so and I really do believe that she will be name that will spread amongst the people long after we are gone.

Rebecca has always been a great conversationalist and this time proved no different. We covered all kinds of ground. We bonded over being in weird bands in our youths (Rebecca sang metal and punk at one point!), the influence of social media, the excitement and privilege of growing older, and her philanthropy work as a director for Riverkeeper, which protects and restores the Hudson River from source to sea and safeguards drinking water supplies, through advocacy rooted in community partnerships, science and law.

Enjoy this interview with the great Rebecca Martin and spread the word!
