  |  Music InterviewKate MannYou can take the singer-songwriter out of the desert ...Even though she left Albuquerque for the rain-drenched Pacific Northwest more than a decade ago, elements from the state Kate Mann grew up in can still be found in her music and on her back. The gigantic Zia symbol tattooed between the desert-folk artist's shoulder blades isn't the only part of the Southwest that's made its mark on the budding singer-songwriter from Albuquerque. The sounds that flutter out of Mann's acoustic guitar work within the broader genre of Americana, but the landscapes painted in her lyrics bring to mind a highly New Mexicanized vision.

 Hal Horowitz JazzedAndy Milne and Dapp TheoryPianist/composer’s group balances the topical and the musicalAndy Milne is of two minds.

On the other hand, he feels that he has something of an obligation to comment on the situation and, at the same time, inject a dose of positive energy.
