Live at the Bop Stop - Sheroes

Performance used with permission from the artist.

In 2014, Monika Herzig had the idea to bring together fellow jazz musicians with the goal of presenting powerful role models on stage as a way of breaking some lingering stereotypes following a path initially paved by Sherri Maricle and the DIVA Jazz Orchestra in the ‘90s. That effort paid off then and continues to pay off now as you’ll hear in this performance in support of their 2024 release All in Good Time

The various Sheroes ensembles over time have represented an extended family of bandleaders, and the group assembled here for this August 30th, 2024 performance is no different. Featuring Jamie Baum on Flute, Reut Regev on Trombone, Gina Schwarz on Bass, Chelsea Hughey on Drums and Monika Herzig on Piano and appearing courtesy of a grant from the Jazz Roads Foundation, it’s Monika Herzig’s Sheroes – Live at the Bop Stop.
