Listen to All This Is Possible
The jazz vocalist Kay Kostopoulos brings her inimitable artistry to 8 timeless tracks that welcome Noel Jewkes, John DiMartino, Peter Brainin, Vince Cherico and Sean Conly.
“Lover/Diggin For Diz” opens with Kostopoulos’ frisky pipes alongside Conly’s lively bass plucking in the quick climate, and “Never Let Me Go” follows with John DiMartino’s emotive keys and Brainin’s rich sax populating the intimate mood.
Halfway through, “Mad About The Boy” uses spoken word and plenty of reserved instrumentation via the gentle dynamics, while “Segment” is a lively bout that allows for Vince Cherico’s animated drums to shine amid the vocal acrobatics.
Landing late, “I Enjoy Being A Girl” enlists both Jewkes and Brainin’s saxes that suit Kostopoulos expressive voice, and “More Than You Know” exits with a romantic spirit the tugs on the heartstrings.
Kostopoulos injects plenty of Mediterranean flavor into these 8 jazz standards that are powerful, tender and timeless.
