April in January

April Hall's new CD, "Fun Out of Life," includes a track - the longest one - we've been humming because it's gorgeous and will help get us through the winter. "You Must Believe in Spring" by Michel Legrand shows off the vocalist's chops and her emotional commitment to this gem of a tune. The Boston-based singer will warm you up tonight when she celebrates the record with pianist Tim Ray, drummer Kenny Hadley, bassist Mark Poniatowski, guitarist Jon Damian, saxophonist Tom Hall, and Amadee Castenell on tenor sax and flute. 8 p.m. $20, $10 students. Scullers Jazz Club, Doubletree Guest Suites, 400 Soldiers Field Road, Boston. 617-562-4111. www.ticketweb.com
