Whitney’s exchange with the audience and overall performance does just that. Will the performance meet or exceed expectations? Will it sound right? Can the vibe of the performance be captured? In the case of Tracey Whitney’s “Live at the Outpost Performance Space,” (a New Mexico Music Awards nominee for Best Vocal Performance) the answer to all of these questions is a resounding yes!" "The trademark of a great live album is the artist’s ability to make the audience, whether in person or listening, feel as if they are part of the album. "When artists release a live album, there is a certain element of risk attached. And, in a surprising departure from the jazz genre of the performance, local favorite - and former Weather Girl and Broadway star - Zenobia joins Tracey for a rocking rendition of Justin Timberlake’s Drink You Away! The musicians read like a who’s-who of New Mexico’s elite: Sid Fendley on piano, Robert “Milo” Jaramillo on bass, Dimian “Dimi” Disanti on guitar, John Bartlit on drums and Paul Gonzalez on Trumpet. Recorded live at the legendary Albuquerque concert hall on August 18, 2016, "Live At The Outpost Performance Space" includes jazz classics Speak Low, Baby, Baby All The Time, I Want A Sunday Kind of Love and An Older Man Is Like An Elegant Wine (a 2017 New Mexico Music Awards nominee for Best Vocal Performance).
