ALAN SCHULMAN

Described as "nothing short of enchanting" by All About Jazz,  AS IS is the musical union of jazz guitarist, Alan Schulman and jazz vocal stylist, Stacey Lynn Schulman.   The couple - both on and off stage - have made a name for themselves for their imaginative re-expressions of 20th century song classics.  AS IS takes audiences on an intimate journey through the world and words of songs long-forgotten - but newly created - with both the soulfulness and swing that's accessible, memorable and highly musical.  Their latest CD entitled "Here's to Life"  recorded in NYC with Grammy-nominated producer, James McKinney, blends the duo’s signature intimacy with the talents of many special guest artists including drummer, Marcus Baylor; acclaimed saxophonist, David Binney; harmonica virtuoso, Gregoire Maret; bassist Rashaan Carter, Latin percussionist Alejandro Lucini, vocalists Christie Dashiel and Carl “Kokayi” Walker, and members of the Kennedy Center orchestra.
