  • Description

    Gretchen Parlato's 2009 sophomore breakthrough, 'In a Dream', signaled the arrival of an incredibly inventive modern jazz singer. Her follow-up, 'The Lost and Found', demonstrates that she has staying power. The album was co-produced by pianist and Blue Note Records star Robert Glasper, who also plays Fender rhodes on one track.

    'In a Dream' garnered international acclaim with Billboard magazine hailing it as "the most alluring jazz vocal album of 2009"; it also made it onto the top year-end polls for Jazz Times, the Boston Globe, the Village Voice and NPR. 'The Lost and Found' shows immediate weight and intensity, exposing a greater dynamic range.

    Parlato surrounds herself with a collective of kindred spirits whose tight knit sound has been cultivated through years of performing and recording together. She marshaled GRAMMY nominated pianist Taylor Eigsti, bassist Derrick Hodge and drummer Kendrick Scott as her main band mates with guest appearances from tenor saxophonist Dayna Stephens and bassist, Alan Hampton, who makes a stellar turn featured as a singer and guitarist. Leaders in their own right, this band is among the most heralded of a young, new wave in jazz.

    Personnel: Gretchen Parlato (vocals, percussion), Taylor Eigsti (piano, Fender Rhodes, Hammond B3 organ), Derrick Hodge (acoustic and electric bass), Kendrick Scott (drums), Dayna Stephens (tenor saxophone, tracks 4, 14), Alan Hampton (guitar, vocals, track 5), Robert Glasper (Fender Rhodes, track 10)

    "A jazz singer of deep musical instincts and an appealingly effervescent style." - New York Times

    "Parlato remains utterly, unfailingly mesmerizing." - Jazz Times
