Synopsis

Product Description

Andréa Burns spent much of 2007 wowing audiences with her Drama Desk-winning performance as Daniela, the saucy hair salon owner, in the runaway off-Broadway hit "In the Heights." Hailed as one of the great interpreters of American Musical Theatre, she has had the distinction of originating songs by Jason Robert Brown, John Bucchino, and Stephen Sondheim. Her debut album, A DEEPER SHADE OF RED, winningly blends two worlds -- the Broadway sound she inhabits and the female singer-songwriter sounds of her childhood -- bringing a fresh take to pop hits and theatre standards. The results capture the full range of Andréa's versatility, warmth, humor and power.

CD Reviews

ENDLESSLY WONDERFUL

Yipster | New York, New York | 11/28/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"With A Deeper Shade of Red Andrea Burns has recorded a CD for the ages. She wraps her warm and crazily versatile voice around a fascinating collection of songs. It's not often that Stephen Sondheim and Melissa Manchester share disc space, but in Andrea Burns' expert handling, it makes delicious sense. Her take on Sondheim's "What More Do I Need? (from Saturday Night) may be the definitive recording of this song; filled with simple joy, love and a strong dose of wonder, the song soars. Manchester's "Through the Eyes of Grace" was new to me and it is a heartbreaking treasure. Burns' supple voice commands you to pay attention and you surrender, happily.

"A Little Brains, A Little Talent" from Damn Yankees is dripping with sixties sass. A fantastic piece of special material written by In the Heights composer Lin-Manuel Miranda is a completely hilarious take on the obsessive online fan. The song is a gem and the performance impeccable. Burns manages to take well-known songs like "I Have a Love" (from West Side Story) and Joni Mitchell's "Chelsea Morning" and turn them into pure, uncomplicated declarations - you listen as if you`ve never heard these song before.

Like all great singers, Andrea Burns chooses wonderful material and trusts that writers have done their job. She lets the song breathe and finds the truth. I'm sure this is why this CD is such a pleasure to hear. It's clear from the first track that you are in the hands of a consummate professional. Andrea Burns is an artist you need to experience. Treat yourself.

"Ms. Burn's debut album is a beautifully crafted listening experience that will stay with you for quite sometime. The selection of songs is varied and interesting, and the continuing theme of love through out creates a beautiful, almost story like quality to the CD. Ms. Bruns' is in beautiful voice for all of the songs. Once can sense her deep passion and feeling in the beautiful arranged 'I Have A Love' while a sassy, comic genius is displayed in 'BTW, Write Back.' I highly recommend this CD to anyone who loves musical theater and looks forward to what the future holds. Ms. Burns is a voice that shall not be soon forgotten!"

A must buy
