Fay Victor is the rare singer who can instill silence and focused attention into an audience, and she commands infectious joy and occasionally raucous energy whenever she performs. Ms. Victor, armed with great communicative powers, in charge of a full-tilt band, resulting in something that Betty Carter might have done, had she grown up in the seventies.
We're celebrating the re-opening of The Sanctuary for Independent Media by thanking everyone who helped out during troubling times--let's enjoy the onset of summertime bliss together with music, movies, BBQ and more!
