Album Review: We've Just Begun from Sinne Eeg
Album: We've Just Begun
Artist: Sinne Eeg & The Danish Radio Big Band
Label: BFM Jazz
Website: https://www.bfmjazz.com/sinne-eeg
We've Just Begun, the latest offering from Danish vocalist Sinne Eeg is a collection of jazz standards performed in her deep bluesy register and features the Danish Radio Big Band backing her up. The assortment of vintage swing and torchlight blues melodies harks back to the clarion voicing of jazz music's pioneers like Billie Holiday and Dinah Shore.
The refinement in Eeg's vocal nuances are alluring, moving with a charismatic stride along "Hv asorfor er lykken så lunefuld" as the winsome scatting in her vocalese embellishes the tune, giving it greater depth and sex appeal. Stretching out her vocal inflections through the verses of "Detour Ahead' enhances the intimate mood that she conveys with her audience, making the enunciation of the words long and languid, oozing with desire in her delivery of the lyrics. Her presentation is sleek and fluid, holding the listener magnetized.
The perky tempo of "My Favorite Things" gives Eeg the freedom to showcase the coquettish side of her personality. Invitingly, the Latin swing phrasing in the instrumentation of "Samba Em Comum" provides a balmy landscape for her to express the level of maturity that the lyrics call for as she ruminates, "It does not matter where you are / in the shower or in the car... you are a star / We love you whoever you are."
Her inherent sense of blues and her dark timbres suited for swing gives her performance a soulful spirit that uplifts her audience. She affects the listener in a positive way, evoking warm sensations, a quality that she shares with her predecessors. A graduate of the Rhythmic Music Conservatory in Esbjerg, Sinne Eeg shows that as a Nordic songstress, she can sing with passion and affection for emotive phrasing.
