As Is | “Crazy World” Release Tour

Described as “nothing short of enchanting” by All About Jazz, As Is is the musical union of NYC jazz guitarist Al Schulman and jazz vocal stylist Stacey Lynn Schulman. The duo bring the debut their new release “Crazy World” to Asheville— an expansive mix of jazz repertoire combined with samba, soul and original material. Recorded with noted jazz artists Jeff “Tain” Watts on drums, Gil Goldstein on accordion, and Corcoran Holt on bass, “Crazy World” is the follow-up to their Billboard Top 10 charting album “Here’s to Life.” Their name “As Is” reflects the project’s guiding principle: meeting the music — and the moment — exactly where it stands, without nostalgia, novelty, or artifice. “There are fresh new voices emerging who throw change ups into their songbooks and adventurously and creatively pursue giving a tune its full worth. Welcome to As Is!” — Dan Ouellette, Downbeat

Featuring: Alan Schulman — Guitar(s) Stacey Lynn Schulman — Vocals Justin Watt — Drums Ryan Kijanka —Bass
