Description
Singer Janna Nelson and pianist Scott Hooker, along with their group, Standard Deviation, present their unique take on some of the vast material that comprises “The Great American Songbook.” This includes some of the most important and influential American popular songs and jazz standards from the early 20th century. These popular and enduring tunes from the 1920s to the 1950s were created for Broadway theater, musical theater, and Hollywood musical film.
Scott Hooker and Janna Nelson’s musical careers have often overlapped. From the late 1970’s in Atlanta, to Albuquerque since 2014, the two have performed as Standard Deviation. This band name reflects their unique take on classics and standards. Jack Hanan sits in on upright bass.
