Recorded on the Closing Saturday of the 2024 Catalina Island JazzTrax Festival, this headlining concert features a heartfelt dedication from Candy Dulfer to the late saxophonist David Sanborn with a moving rendition of his iconic "Straight to the Heart."
Following the song, evening continues on the JazzTrax live stage in the historic Casino Ballroom with Dulfer's original song, "The Climb." Showcasing her dynamic band, the performance features Ivan Peroti’s sensational vocals and Ulco Bed in an outstanding guitar solo. The performance as a whole was named as Producer Art Good's Best Live Performance of the Year.
