Listen to The Feel Of Your Love
A rising Canadian artist with an exceptional voice, Eva Schubert brings us 7 well thought out songs that blend jazz and blues via her inimitable singing
The title track starts the listen with a dreamy elegance that benefits from Jeremy Bender’s radiant piano and, of course, Schubert’s captivating voice, and “Dark Star” follows with more emphasis on Charlie Ringas’ proficient drumming that welcomes a cozy melody.
In the middle, “Salome” offers a frisky demeanor of firm drums, diverse singing and a fuller climate, while “Astray” highlights Bryant Didier’s skilled guitar prowess amid thicker moments of bluesy nods and soulful singing. The final track, “Hard Hands”, rumbles a bit more intensely, and certainly spotlights Schubert’s sultry pipes and the band’s dynamic interaction.
Although she possesses a skillset that might remind you of Helen Mirrell, Peggy Lee, or Nat King, Schubert’s vision is also quite modern, and at 7 tracks this body of work exits far too soon. However, it seems pretty likely that more songs are on the horizon soon, thankfully.
Travels well with: Vanessa Racci- Jazzy Italian; Diana Panton- Solstice/Summer
