Award-winning songwriter Wendy Jans studied opera and sang at Carnegie Hall, but has, shall we say, strayed a bit, settling into a distinctive style that is warm and jazzy.  Think Norah Jones meets Madeleine Peyroux.  Simple as a Song, her new album, was produced by Chad Carlson whose engineering talents are heard on albums by Chris Isaak, Trisha Yearwood and Taylor Swift.
