Synopsis

Album Description

The great-great granddaughter of writer Leo Tolstoy hails from Sweden. Her silky smooth voice is making waves and getting rave reviews in the trad jazz world. 'Baby Plays Around' was co-written with none other than The Imposter himself, Elvis Costello. She also bravely covers Horace Silver's 'Peace' and 'Blame It On My Youth' & other jazz standards.

(4 out of 5 stars)

"Ok, so there're no original compositions on this album, but she sure knows how to bring older material back to life.
A soothing soulful voice which badly enough, sounds a bit too 'airy'. Meaning that she won't last long I'm afraid since this technique is SOOOO bad for your vocals.
Anyway, good to know that even up north in Sweden talent gets recognized"
