In this episode, I sit down with pianist/vocalist Champian Fulton and saxophonist/clarinetist/composer Klas Lindquist to discuss their latest release, “At Home,” the concept for which began with an event held in a home owned by Turtle Bay Records founder Scott Asen, who suggested they actually record in in his living room. Oklahoma native and New York based Champian Fulton is the daughter of trumpeter and flugel hornist Stephen Fulton. She began her career at the age of 10, performing for Jazz legend and family friend Clark Terry's 75th Birthday Party. A Jazz pianist and vocalist for more than 20 years, Champian has now released 19 albums as a leader and has performed in more than 25 countries, both in concert and on TV. She has been recognized with numerous awards, including Album of the Year in the NYC Jazz Record (2018, 2020, 2023) and Pianist and Vocalist of the Year (2019) by Hot House Magazine, among other prestigious accolades. A world-renowned ambassador of Jazz excellence, alto saxophonist, clarinetist and composer, Klas Lindquist, was born in Göteborg, Sweden. Klas is considered one of Sweden's most exciting Jazz musicians. He is the recipient of the “The Golden Sax” award, “The Alice Babs Award,” “The Stockholm Stads Kulturstipendium”, and the “Gavatin Foundation Prize for Jazz Music.” Recognized for his technical brilliance, imagination and style, Klas is in demand as a recording artist, and has appeared on over 40 albums as a featured soloist and five albums as a leader. These two seasoned artists with impressive resumes are very fond of the duo format, which is what led them to develop their latest release. And this is where we start our conversation.

Inspired by her father, jazz trumpeter Stephen Fulton, Champian's passion for music ignited at a young age. Surrounded by the vibrant jazz scene of Oklahoma, she found herself immersed in a world where melodies danced through the air and improvisation was second nature. On a recent episode of The Spark, Champian delved into her upcoming endeavors with Marquis Lupton. The conversation centered around her highly anticipated tour and her 18th studio album, offering fans a glimpse into her artistic process and the inspiration drawn from her Oklahoma roots. Champian's journey into the realm of jazz was not solitary. Alongside her father's guidance, she found mentorship from luminaries such as Clark Terry and Major Holley, whose influence sculpted her musical identity. Their wisdom and expertise provided the foundation upon which Champian built her career, earning her acclaim as one of the most gifted jazz musicians of her generation. During her interview with Lupton, Champian reflected on the significance of her upbringing in the Oklahoma jazz scene. She spoke fondly of the supportive community that nurtured her talent and the countless hours spent honing her craft in local clubs and venues. And, as she gears up for her upcoming tour, Champian remains steadfast in her commitment to honoring the traditions of jazz while infusing her own unique voice into the genre. Her 18th studio album promises to be a testament to her evolution as an artist, showcasing her mastery of the craft and her deep connection to her musical heritage. With each note she plays, Champian Fulton pays homage to the jazz legends who came before her, carrying forward their legacy while forging a path of her own.

The title gives it away - it's an all-vocalist episode, favoring the ladies (3 out of 4) and offering a mix of standards (everybody's at it) along with a little more adventurous programming from time to time. Will the weakest vocalist technically walk away with honors? Can Pat and Mike overcome their gender-trouble and dig what our sole male vocalist is laying down? Is Mike's S.O. always going to be mad at Pat because Mike knows how to shift (blame) better than an Indy 500 driver? Tune in to find out.
