Description
Jennifer Scott is a musical alchemist, a singer with a gift for transforming songs often dismissed as pop dross into jazz gold, like her angst-ridden arrangement of Lesley Gore's 1963 lament "It's My Party." In Scott's hands, the teenage tale of woe turns into a surprisingly taut musical melodrama advanced by an insinuating bass line. The Vancouver, B.C. singer, who collaborated extensively with the South Bay duo of saxophonist Kristen Strom and guitarist Scott Sorkin in the quartet Crossing Borders, is equally effective interpreting standards or reinventing gems by Joni Mitchell and Lennon and McCartney.More Info
