Sunday Jazz Brunch host by Ron Drotos

Ron helped create the Tony award-nominated Broadway musical "Swinging On A Star," based on Johnny Burke's lyrics, and has performed with many vocalists including Julius La Rosa, Judy Collins, and Giacomo Gates.

Vocalist and radio host Mary Foster Conklin is an old school song hound, with a special talent for uncovering lesser known treasures of the American Songbook and performing them in nontraditional venues. She hosts a weekly live radio show called “A Broad Spectrum – the Ladies of Jazz” celebrating women composers and lyricists on WFDU.FM on the HD2 channel Jazz and What's More.  “Scratch her witty tough-girl-from Jersey patter,” wrote The Washington Post, “and you’ll find a sensitive artist (but not frail) with a wide-ranging boldly colored voice and an open ear for off-beat material.”
