Joining them will be musical director Michael Arrom, Lyman Medeiros on bass, John Ciodini on guitar, and Gene Coye and drums.

Hale is the subject of a recent biography, "Corky Hale Uncorked," and is the only woman to serve as pianist and musical director for Billie Holiday. She has performed at the White House with Tony Bennett, soloed with Barbra Streisand at the Hollywood Bowl and Central Park, and with George Michael at Royal Albert Hall. She has also played and/or recorded with Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Peggy Lee, Nat King Cole, Liberace, Anita O'Day, June Christy, Roberta Flack, Melissa Manchester, Judy Collins, Mel Torme, Chet Baker, Joe Williams, Benny Carter, and numerous others, and is generally considered to be the most accomplished jazz harpist in the world.

Tahara was raised in Detroit on an eclectic mix of rock, pop, opera and Broadway. She honed her classical technique at the University of Michigan and developed her jazz chops at the Berklee College of Music in Boston.
