Album:  Globetrotter Artist:  Luca di Luzio Label:  Self-Released Website:  www.lucadiluzio.it   Guitarist Luca di Luzio's upcoming CD, Globetrotter  is an assortment of contemporary jazz tunes bridging funk, blues, soul, and Latin music.  Comprised of a few jazz standards and a handful of original works written by Luca di Luzio, a prolific guitar player who studied different styles of music, the recording expresses his personal vision of jazz guitar based on melody and groove.  Joining Di Luzio in his vision are bass guitarist Jimmy Haslip, drummer Dave Wecki, keyboardist George Whitty, and saxophonists Max Ionata and Alessandro Fariselli.

Sports commentator Sage Steele opined, "You do you, and I'll do me" in a 2025 podcast hosted by Roseanne Barr. A motto that rings true for song stylist Jonathan Karrant.  Like many vocalists before him including Harry Connick, Jr., Michael Feinstein, Tony Bennett, and Michael Bublé, Jonathan Karrant sings songs from the Great American Songbook but he does not mimic his predecessors by any stretch of the imagination.  He imprints his own personal touch on the tunes, reeling in listeners and singling himself out from the wide field of song interpreters. Born in the heart of America at the foothills of the Ozarks in the old western town of Fort Smith, Arkansas, east of the Arkansas River, Jonathan Karrant prides himself on his down-to-earth American roots while also being influenced by his artistic mother, Nancy, who danced and taught for a local ballet company.  She discovered Jonathan's talent for singing at an early age and encouraged him to pursue the discipline.

Album Review: Becoming Marlene Dietrich from Myriam Phiro

Album:  Becoming Marlene Dietrich Artist:  Myriam Phiro Label:  Self-Released Website:  www.myriamphiro.com Smooth jazz vocalist Myriam Phiro introduces a new generation of music listeners to jazz standards that made Marlene Dietrich famous in her time from the 1920's to 1940's with Phiro's new release Becoming Marlene Dietrich .  Although Phiro immerses herself in melodies that had been Dietrich's trademark tunes, Phiro tailors the songs to her likeness.  Her illustrious mezzo-soprano register is higher on the vocal spectrum than Dietrich's contralto pitch, which stamps the tracks with her own unique nuances and inflections.  Her treatment of the verses is finessed with a distinctly soft, feminine touch and a delightfully, hypnotic resonance, setting her style apart from Dietrich's. Her vocals cradle the lyrics of "Quand L’Amour Meurt," written by Georges Crémieux and Octave Millandy, with a warmth that penetrates the listener's soul as Hyuna Park...
