#TunesOnTuesday shares the song that led me to LA this past weekend for the #grammy festivities. "Let's Wander," which I wrote about Washington, DC, apparently reminds other people of their favorite cities. Maybe that will inspire other versions of the song... https://ohljazz.com/2024/02/05/tunes-on-tuesday-lets-wander-2/ #songblog #jazzblog #musicblog #jazz #jazzmusic #songwriter #songwriting #composer #lyrics #piano #jazzpiano #music #musician #grammys #letswander
