Back Stage With Theresa Andersson

Just before her set on the Acura Stage last Friday, I caught this practice run-through in her dressing room/trailer. Apparently her Jazz Fest set was a bit of a digression because she's been playing the same music all by herself on stage recently. Using looping equipment, she plays every instrument, records it live, then triggers it and sings and plays over it simultaneously (she did a few like that to open the set). Same for her new album coming out except for one duet with Allan Toussaint. I admittedly can't be a fair judge since I know her well enough to have been at her wedding, but I'd say its by far and away the most interesting music she's ever put out. I think fans and non-fans alike will also be equally surprised at the depth of her new material. It pretty much redefines her. More here.

why do you use the reductive term digressive?; when is appears that you are actually meaning to compliment her if one moves on to read what you have posted?
