Elizabeth Shepherd desafía los límites de lo que se considera jazz convencional, creando un sonido muy personal. Desde Londres hasta Tokyo, esta canadiense ha cautivado públicos y críticos de ambos lados del charco. Su álbum debut Start to Move, nominado a un premio Juno, continúa recibiendo alabanzas. En esta visita nos presenta su nuevo álbum Heavy Falls the Night (Do Right Music), que ya empieza a cosechar éxitos.
The genre of jazz song has been hurting for a modern cool cat - or in this case, a sizzling songbird. Toronto singer-pianist Elizabeth Shepherd cements her status as one of the best with this third studio album. Accompanied by her airtight trio, she gets funky (without doing funk), shows off her jazz chops (without losing us) and delivers some great songs (without ever devolving into pop fluff). In other words, she's the real deal. Her velvety coo is a tireless delight; and it shines on this collection of taught, swinging, evocative tunes, simmering with alt-tempos and melodic surprises. Whether you're a hipster, a purist or a Diana Krall-loving softie, she will win you over.
