  • Description

    Clare Teal is an exceptional talent on the jazz scene - a singer with intense warmth and passion whose delicate phrasing and heartfelt interpretation of lyrics are the very essence of her music. Add to that a major songwriting talent and you have a young lady who is likely to equal the heights reached by all other British jazz chanteuses in record time. Miss Teal exudes positivity, with an incredible sense of humour, all readily on display here. On her Candid debut Clare is blessed with accompaniment by some of the UK's top mainstream musicians. Pianist Martin Litton provided most of the arrangements, with telling contributions by himself and reedman Trevor Whiting. On guitar are Nils Solberg and Richard Jeffries, John Day (bass) and Rod Brown (drums) complete the band. "Clare's luxuriant voice, delicate phrasing and breezy, carefree air recall the great jazz singers of the Fifties, including the greatest of all, Ella Fitzgerald." Charles Dunlap
