Asher has collected a gaggle of notable vocalists AND vocal-group arrangers to (and I'm not kidding here!) tackle various short solo improvisations of MINE and craft them into group pieces!! (those are my usual ones from my good ole' bathroom!). And then I'll be improvising with these singers betwixt and between these offerings. And those singers are: Asher Blank, Erin Bentlage, Meltem Ege, Nyla Smith, Melissa Lai, Carly Wood, and Nate Barnett.
