CURRENT: ALBUM DEALS

Sinne Eeg - Waiting For Dawn / Sinne Eeg (Albums)
A fully mature artist who dares to take chances, and succeeds with an instinctive feeling that lends credibility to everything she does.” - Boris Rabinowitsch, Politiken (Danish national daily newspaper) Sinne Eeg released Waiting For Dawn - her second album in her own name - in August 2007, four years after the release of her debut CD Sinne Eeg. Waiting For Dawn has stirred up a great deal of enthusiasm, both among critics and the listening public. ”Not a single track seems superfluous; not one passage in a song seems lacking – which is why the album is so masterful. Immediately accessible, but at the same time so complex that new layers are constantly revealing themselves.” – Gaffa (Danish music magazine) ”A voice that is warm and tremendously expressive - sometimes revealing a touch of fragility - and whose emotional register ranges from delicate modesty to explosiveness, without falling for the temptation of over dramatizing. Add to this a talent for phrasing and a rhythmic emancipation that makes the music come alive in a way I have not experienced in any other Danish singer. It is equally rare to encounter a CD release containing a series of newly-written songs that are such gems.” - Boris Rabinowitsch, Politiken Sinne Eeg has been exceptionally busy on the Danish music scene - and has also made several tours of Japan and China – during the four years that have passed between her 2003 CD debut and her 2007 release Waiting For Dawn. Growing up in a musical home and a good musical environment in her Danish hometown of Lemvig doubtlessly contributed to Sinne Eeg’s decision to pursue a musical career, way back in her high school days. Sinne has been particularly inspired by jazz singers and instrumentalists such as Sarah Vaughan, Betty Carter, Dinah Washington, Miles Davis, Keith Jarrett, Chet Baker and Oscar Peterson. Sinne studied at the West Jutland Music Conservatory from 1997 to 2003. She presently teaches singing and ensemble playing at the conservatory. At the moment Sinne Eeg is working on a new CD with bassist and producer Chris Minh Doky. The expected release date is April 7th 2008.

Sidsel Storm - Storm And Stillness (Album)
Vocalist Sidsel Storm will be releasing her debut album of the same name, on Calibrated Records. It's no exaggeration to say expectations are high, because the young singer, along with her excellent band, have already made quite an impression on the Danish jazz scene. One of Sidsel's four original compositions on Sidsel Storm is called "Fall in NYC", written during a lengthy stay in the metropolis. Listening to it is almost like being there yourself. In every tone of this beautiful number you can sense the particular light, the autumn leaves, the sounds and smells of a stroll through The Village, Central Park, or across the Brooklyn Bridge. You really feel how New York took Sidsel, yes, by storm.

Sara Grabow - Rude, Unbending & Lusty (Album)
29 year-old Sara Grabow has for many years been a part of the vibrant Danish music scene with her melodious music, inspired by Joni Mitchell, Carol King and Beatles, embedded with humorous texts and her clear epical vocal. In October 2007 Grabow released her second album called “Rude, Unbending & Lusty”. Personal feelings helped the Danish singer/songwriter Sara Grabow write the numbers on her new album Rude, Unbending & Lusty, songs about the end of a five-year relationship. And feelings are what made this critic enjoy the evening’s intimate concert in Aarup. I left the concert sensing two things. One: the relaxed satisfaction that follows after having been given the shivers, and two: disappointment over the rather short set list that mostly included numbers from her new album, and only two from last year’s Blueberries. Sara Grabow brought along her three-man band to what was her first concert on Fynen. Still, she began by playing solo on “Interlude”. And even though the guitar seemed huge next to the little, blond-haired vocalist, nobody was in doubt, listening to her finger work and the flawless, clear vocals, as to whom was in charge. Sara Grabow plays both acoustic and electric guitar, but Søren Bigum was clearly the guitar equilibrist of the evening with his plaintive and aggressive solos on “Turning Point”, “The Oak Tree” and “Green” … “Before The Storm”, which is about a lovers’ quarrel, was an example of Grabow’s deep empathy with the music, as well as the distended “Americana style” that the band represents. Thus there was space for absorption and low-key expression on songs like “Oak Tree” (inspired by Walt Whitman) as well as expansion, energy and rock ‘n’ roll on “Before The Storm” and “Green”, where Grabow not only reached the high notes, but the enthusiastic audience as well.

Ron Kaplan - High Standards / Dedicated (Albums)
Los Angeles native Ron Kaplan's musical style is reminiscent of the great jazz vocalists of the 1950's. Critics note his sophisticated phrasing, tone and diction. They also recognize his ability to get to the heart of the song with his own mark of musicianship. "Ron Kaplan is an original personality in the world of jazz vocalists and he has managed to put his name into that previously closed inner circle. He has breathed new life into it by the sheer force of his style, for as you know, “the style is the man himself”. The Velvet Crooner and the elegant power of his seemingly casual phrasing is in fact, ultra-tight and perfectly seductive." "High Standards", presenting Ron Kaplan is a smart package, featuring superb musicians, and the heart and soul of a mature vocalist and leader..."High Standards" is just that, from the moment you look at the album jacket and put on the CD until you hear the final notes of "Lazy Afternoon". "Dedicated"...From the opening bars to the closing reprise, "Dedicated" is a polished album by a sincere and genuinely compassionate vocalist and will immerse the listener into bittersweet bliss.

Betty Johnson - A Family Affair (Album)
When Betty Johnson returned to the limelight in 1993 after a thirty-year pause, she reminded America that she had come from a singing-family tradition. A Family Affair, the first release of new Betty Johnson material after her comeback, featured prominently her daughters Lydia and Elisabeth. Professional singers in their own right, their lovely and sophisticated voices left no doubt that they dwelt vibrantly in the Johnson Family realm. It was natural that Betty Johnson featured her daughters on the album as Betty herself had sung in a family fold as a child. Betty first touched audiences in the late 1930s and 1940s as a member of the popular Johnson Family Singers. Throughout the South and beyond, the Family sang sacred music with unchained enthusiasm, becoming one of the most popular family acts of the era. In A Family Affair, Betty has carried on the tradition, bringing the Johnson Family sound into its seventh decade. Highlights from this collection include “The Very Thought of You,” “Today I Love Everybody,” and “How Deep is the Ocean” (which Betty sang on Arthur Godfrey’s Talent Scouts in the early 1950s).

Lydia Gray - In My Eyes (Album)
Lydia Gray brings an intimate setting to the covers of pop tunes from the 60's through the 90's with a crystal clear voice and warm instrumentation using guitar, drums and cello. Although from a jazz heritage (her Mom is Betty Johnson of Tonight Show fame) in this CD, Ms. Gray infuses this jazz sensibility and modern sound in a Diana Krall/Norah Jones approach - minial arrangements and mellow vocals.

Hanna Hais - I Love America (Single)
A remake of the classic! Hanna’s vocal excursions typically have a commercial edge, but for this one Rio’s finest, DJ Meme, opts for the full-on Tom Moulton Philly disco treatment complete with proper strings, horns and, well, the entire orchestra. Patrick Juvet’s disco nugget was, of course, the track that launched Full Intention back in the ‘90s but Meme’s smooth, glossy production is a very different take from Full Intention’s proto filtered disco groove, and Hais’ equally polished tones put this squarely in the beach/poolside/pre and after-party category.
