Talk About Las Vegas With Ira

This week, Ira spoke with Jonathan Karrant, who along with Joshua White, will be performing in his “Shadows Fall” Album Release Show at the Summerlin Library Performing Arts Theater, May 27-28. In this 30-minute episode of Talk About Las Vegas, Karrant talks about knowing his future in show business from age five or six; how his grandparents turned him on to the great American songbook; how he didn’t pick jazz - jazz picked him; why he delights in bringing obscure songs to his audience; the advice he received that “it’s not about you, it’s about the audience”; his collaboration with pianist Joshua White; why live music is healing; the energy between the audience and live music; and a shout out to the legendary pianist Vinnie Falcone, who was the former musical director for Frank Sinatra.
