by Andrew Portez

“Fulton, always in terrific voice, has a rather distinctive style. She rarely sings a straight melody for very long. Her approach to a melody bears some similarities to “vocalese” and “scat” singing, except Fulton uses the song’s actual lyrics rather than the made-up words and nonsense syllables of vocalese and scat.
