Leslie Pintchik

Leslie Pintchik was on her way to becoming an English professor when she abruptly changed course and focused on jazz piano and composition. She has released a number of critically acclaimed CDs and a DVD. She has also written liner notes for at least two CDs by other artist. Her groups have varied from one CD to the next, with her husband, bassist Scott Hardy, being a constant. She formed her own label, Pinch Hard, to issue her music.
