um... so this happened. and Im so TOUCHED!! yep, and excited, thankful (to the folks at Volume One for their incredibly nice comments, and to my bands and to all the folks I play music with around here), a little embarrassed (but not enough to make me SHY or anything. this is just so COOL.), and HAPPY. this makes me HAPPY!! V1 Staff Picks Best Sue Orfield Winner: Sue Orfield When it comes to Sue Orfields, frankly, there’s no one like Sue Orfield. The ubiquitous band leader and host of The Sue Orfield Show on Chippewa Valley Community Television places highly in both our Best Blues Band and Best Jazz Band categories year after year, but to be honest, she breaks the mold for both, defyin’ genres left and right (and up and down, actually, too). So instead of letting her place in either of those categories this year, we figured she and her supporting band deserved their own altogether. Her big-band style crosses boundaries from blues to boogie to jazz to country and western, but doesn’t stick to any of them too tightly. So naturally, when we created the category of Best Sue Orfield, to be transparent and honest, we had a winner in mind. Good luck next year to all the other contending Sue Orfields – you’ve got a big name to knock down. –Eric Christenson volumeone.org/polls/21/categories/715_v1_staff_picks
