Candy Dulfer (Feb 19-20)

Over two decades after getting her big break in a Prince video, Dutch saxophonist Candy Dulfer has hooked up with a latterday pop Svengali for her latest record. Many of the tracks on 2011's Crazy were produced by Printz Board, the multi-instrumentalist best known for his role as musical director of the Black Eyed Peas. Unsurprisingly, it's a record that will appeal more to party fans than jazz purists – but then it's not like Dulfer ever had much traction with the purists in the first place. The pair will return to Blue Note for a couple of extra shows after their 'funky Valentine's' gigs earlier in the week.
