I've been following the work of Louis Rosen and Capathia Jenkins since 2005 when I first went to hear them at Joe's Pub. Back then they were performing songs by Rosen set to the poems of Maya Angelou and Langston Hughes. It was an exhilarating performance of indescribably beautiful and soulful art songs that tapped into classical, blues, gospel and jazz influences. A year or so later they released...
