Welcome

“When I look through a camera lens, I want to people to see what I see. When I sing a song, I want people to feel what I feel.” ~ Deb Rasmussen

Thank you for visiting my site.  Like my life, this space is bit eclectic. There is information about my music and some of the jazz community work I’ve been involved with in Canada and Mongolia. And then, there’s “the day job” – another consuming passion that has taken me around the world to be constantly challenged and inspired. These interests often overlap and lead to adventure. Glimpses of that are in the gallery.

To stay current on my shows, please subscribe to my newsletter.  I share news and stories about my gigs and adventures (musical and otherwise, here and abroad). I also share information about other musical events around Calgary that you might be interested in.

“The vocalist’s excellent, measured singing is well supported by her band in creating and presenting a musical neighborhood where the allegory and simile of the lyrics come to life as soon as they are exhaled.  Effortless swing and smart programming make this an excellent vocal recording.” ~ Michael Bailey, All About Jazz
