Over het album
Hailing from Sweden, with her vocal & composition skills further honed in Finland, Emma Larsson released two critically acclaimed recordings in Europe before moving to New York in 2011. For her debut US release, Emma presents a set of seven original songs along with evocative arrangements of the classic "Here's to Life," and Sade's " No Ordinary Love." Along with veteran NY drummer, Billy Drummond, bassist Eric Revis, pianist Shedrick Mitchell and saxophonist Kenneth Whalum III, Larsson harkens the spirit of Betty Carter in her approach to time and tempos, adventurous song forms and her embrace of soaring melodies.
