LHI Live: Vocalist Meghan Stagl And Bassist Matthew Epperson

WMUK | By Cara Lieurance,
Martin Klemm
Published February 12, 2018 at 3:17 PM EST

Meghan Stagl and Matthew Epperson started their duo while studying jazz at Western Michigan University, where, they say, jazz students are thrown into a churning musical mix from the get-go. They like their collaboration for the same reasons: their roles combine to suggest all the elements of a song, but there's a lot of freedom to play around with the tunes. With a new album in the works, they joined Cara Lieurance in the Takeda Studio for a selection of old and new standards.
