LOIDE, jazz practitioner

Published July 27, 2011 4:00am ET



Loide Jorge leads a double life. During the day, she is an immigration attorney. By night she is LOIDE (pronounced loy-deh), a scintillating jazz vocalist whose eclectic repertoire reflects her roots. This Thursday, she returns to the site where her first CD, “LOIDE, Live at Bohemian Caverns,” was recorded last year.

“Bohemian Caverns is a great place to perform because it’s intimate and the sound is awesome, perhaps because the walls are round and shaped like a cave,” she said. “Even though the audience is right in your face, it’s not uncomfortable. They’re there to listen. It’s not like places where you have to sing against conversations going on all around the room.”
