This is the true story of Lil Hardin Armstrong, pianist, composer and bandleader in the early days of jazz. Ahead of her time, Lil made a career for herself, and for Louis Armstrong, her modest, unassuming husband. Scat-inspired verse celebrates how Lil overcame race and gender barriers to become the first lady of the Chicago jazz scene.
