A Conversation with Theo Croker & Dee Dee Bridgewater – HuffPost 6.13.14

Mike Ragogna: Can we start at the beginning where Theo meets Dee Dee forAfro Physicist?

Theo Croker: Dee Dee and I met in Shanghai in 2009 at a jazz festival. I was playing in a big band behind her. We met in person and proceeded to link up, go to lunch and hang out, and I kind of became her guide to the city while she was there. After the show, I had a show at one of the sponsoring venues with my band and Dee Dee came down and sat in. We kind of stayed in touch after that. That was the start of it.
