Producer's Notes: "I first met Naomi Uyama well over 20 years ago, soon after I started Lindy Hopping. She was a talented dancer and soon became one of the world's top competitors and most sought-after instructors. And what a performer - I will never forget her moving performance with the Silver Shadows at Frankie Manning's 95th Birthday Celebration in 2009. Years later I was delighted to discover Naomi's talents as both a fantastic singer and the confident band leader of Naomi & Her Handsome Devils. "Little Girl Blues" stands out as an empowering swinging anthem for women everywhere. - Jesse"
