Autumn Leaves

Johnny Mercer

The falling leaves drift by the window

The autumn leaves of red and gold

I see your lips, the summer kisses

The sun-burned hands I used to hold

Since you went away the days grow long

And soon I'll hear old winter's song

But I miss you most of all my darling

When autumn leaves start to fall

Dear Friends

Get ready for Sheroes#4 - planned for a 2024 release, celebrating 10 years of Sheroes, more info to come. Thank you to Chamber Music America for the support!

We also presented Show #30 of Both Sides of Joni in New York, with special guest Ingrid Jensen at show #29, and more to come! Next up London Jazz Festival November 18 and Vienna's Tunnel November 24. More calendar highlights, the Sheroes Europe edition will be at the Hannover Jazz Festival on October 20 and the Acoustic Project Debut in Vienna is Monday, October 16 at ZWE.
