@livwarfield in a throw 🔙 Photo©️2016 f/forward 👉🏾 April 2018 💜#livwarfield celebrated the life of Prince Nelson Rogers and honored his legacy 💜succinctly described here 🙌🏾 “Live wire Liv: Liv Warfield was on fire for two nights at the Dakota Jazz Club. Her fabulously funky 2½-hour performance late Saturday was the closest we’ve come to replicating a late-night Prince jam as she and a parade of guests (#npg, @donnagrantis, @therealshelbyj, #xaviertaplin, @coradunham0e6) rocked the house until closing. Two of the many highlights were long medleys, one of which included Prince tunes, Sly Stone signatures and even “When the Saints Go Marching In” with some Fats Domino-inspired piano from Taplin. Leave it to playful saxophonist Adrian Crutchfield @realgoodsax to improvise by banging a drum stick on a small metal pail in which French fries are served at the Dakota.” **Excerpt from @startribune by Jon Bream, April 23, 2018 * * * #livemusic #prince #npg #funk #rocknroll #blues #minneapolis #singersongwriter #musicians #musicalimagery #renescotlandphotography
