“... Sullivan plays not just the upright bass strings but the bass itself, throwing himself into the performance not to draw the spotlight, but to impart a palpable joie de vive to go with his rhythmic, rippling (think Charlie Haden, somewhat) bass tones." 
~ Mark Keresman, JazzReview.com

“…Sullivan’s a bassist whose authoritative and bluesy bending’s of the notes honor his affection for legends such as Slam Stewart as well as Ray Brown.” ~ Jazz Journalist Association

Renn Woods is a legendary icon in stage, TV and film, an amazing vocalist and talented emerging playwright. As a child star and teenage heartthrob, Renn is best known for her roles as Fanta in the Emmy Award winning TV mini-series Roots. Her unforgettable interpretation of “Aquarius” in Milos Foreman’s movie musical Hair is an official classic.

As Dorothy in the first national Broadway tour of The Wiz, her performance was hailed by the critics as a new musical theatre standard for the young performer. She returned in 2006 to that very same theatre (The Ahmanson) in Los Angeles, to the same kind of reception, in Caroline or Change (the role of “The Moon”). Renn’s own musical, “Sold’ Renn Woods in Concert, has continued to earn her respect as a published playwright. The Kennedy Center’s KCATF Program chose her play as one of 18 plays (out of 2,000 reviewed) to be developed. It began as a one woman show in the Juneteenth Festival and was quickly produced at the Music Center under Gordon Davidson’s tenure.

 Combining a lifetime of influences with a homegrown interpretation..
