The Goldilocks Effect...Have you heard of it?
The Goldilocks effect is the human tendency to prefer options that are balanced and "just right", avoiding extremes. It comes from the fairy tale where Goldilocks picks the porridge, chair, and bed that are neither too much nor too little.
Jazz music occupies a unique middle ground — it provides an unmistakable layer of elegance and atmosphere when ignored, yet remains rewarding and sophisticated if a guest chooses to listen closely. Perfect for parties, art shows, intimate gatherings.
Now taking music bookings for fall and winter events! It's Just Right😃

Louis Armstrong passed away 55 years ago this morning. Here is the cover of the New York Daily News, as saved by Lucille Armstrong.

The King is dead….long live the King! Make sure to listen to some Pops today! (And make your plans to visit the Louis Armstrong Center—today is our three year anniversary of being open to the public, too. Louis lives!)
