Kevyn Lettau at the Quail Garden

Jazz singer Kevyn Lettau, famous from her 90's smooth jazz hit, "Sunlight" performed in Encinitas, California at the Quail Botanical Gardens, just 20 minutes north of San Diego. Kevyn performed with guitarist, Peter Sprague and Gunnar Biggs on bass.

The trio performed from their current CD, "What Is Enough" and most notable were the songs, "Sunlight (Acoustic version) and "Waters of March". Kevyn also played percussion instruments at the concert.

Before the concert, nicheGrafix and Adobo County Pinoy Lifestyle Magazine sat with Kevyn Lettau at the beautiful botanical garden for a short interview. Back in the Philippines, Kevyn has performed several times in the past including early this year. The jazz singer enjoys coming to the Philippines because of the warm reception the fans gives her everytime she performs. Up to date, Kevyn still receives emails from there and that she enjoys how much Filipinos love to sing. Ms. Lettau shared her childhood, musical beginnings and influences with Ms. Dee. Kevyn also enjoys music from Filipino artists and one of those mentioned is Gary Valenciano. Kevyn was a bit excited knowing that Gary V will be coming to California for the "As 1" concert with Martin Nievera and wishes to be able to see his concert. She also shared her recent move from Los Angeles to San Diego 3 months ago and how she is adjusting to her new place.

During the concert, Kevyn humbly dedicated the song "Sunlight" to Ms. Dee and shared with the audience how popular this song was in the Philippines. Kevyn became well known with the song and ended up doing some tv commercials and concert tours in Manila.

Even after so many years of performing, Kevyn has maintained her cool voice. As the trio played on that Thursday afternoon, it was so relaxing hearing the guitar, the bass and her voice while enjoying the green background of the trees, the flowers and the waterfalls behind it.

Before the concert started, Kevyn gave Ms. Dee a personally signed copy of her latest CD with Peter Sprague. Their concert is one of many programs that the Quail Botanical Gardens of Encinitas are producing every summer as a treat to members and as a way of inviting people to become a member of the Garden. nicheGrafix and Adobo had a short tour of the place which is filled with different plants, trees and flowers that grows from various places in the United States and some selected countries around the world. Because of the greens that surrounded the place, you can feel the fresh air around you and the coolness of the weather in the area. We would like to thank Kevyn Lettau for sharing her time with us.
