Tardy Yet to Perform at Ryles

To the editors:

Although I was flattered and honored by the profile that you ran of me in last week's FM ("Jessica Tardy: Lady Sings the Blues"), it suggested that I have gigged at the Regattabar, Cantab Lounge and Ryles. I write to clarify that although I am indeed a fan of all three establishments, I have yet to perform my own gigs at any of them. While I have on occasion appeared as a guest vocalist with bands at the Regatta and the Cantab, I have never performed at Ryles. JESSICA TEMPLE TARDY
