This debut release from Penzance-based jazz vocalist Johanna Graham showcases a fine singer with a palpably individual style. The eclectic track list ranges from The Beatles (‘I Will’) to standards (‘Stormy Weather’) to more contemporary pop (Kate Bush’s ‘The Man With The Child In His Eyes’). The press release cites the influence of Ella Fitzgerald, Anita O’Day, Julie London and Stacey Kent on the singer. On account of her lyricism, purity of sound, phrasing and sense of space, I would also add Chet Baker to that list. Highlights include a beautifully paced ‘I’m Through With Love’, James Taylor’s classic ‘Don’t Let Me Lonely’, plus ‘Empty Serenade’, one of a brace of self-penned songs by the singer and her guitarist, Martin Bowie. Fringe Magnetic’s Rory Simmons guests on trumpet and contributes some fine solos, while the singer’s bandmates provide the perfectly weighted and understated accompaniment, with unfussy arrangements courtesy of Bowie.
