"I have received, reviewed and added Greenspace to WMEB's jazz rotation this week. It was reported as the #3 Jazz Add to CMJ. I was blown away by this CD. I am not a fan of most contemporary vocal jazz that I hear. I find many of the vocalists derivative both in their vocal style and song choices. Ms. Underwood however, relies on a strong set of atypical covers and unique originals. The music is varied enough on Greenspace to hold the listeners' attention throughout the length of the album, yet has a style that allows the music to gel as a cohesive whole. I gave this release a grade of A."
