Synopsis

Album Description

Wild Blue is the master work of a consummate artist, showcasing Jeanne Newhall's talents as a singer, songwriter, arranger and pianist. From her unique version of Springsteen's "Hungry Heart" to her own "Still" and "Ancient" (the heart and soul of the album), these multi-genre tracks (jazz, folk, pop) charm you and keep drawing you in. A mix of contemporary and original material, WILD BLUE opens with Bruce Springsteen?s "Hungry Heart" and closes with "Those Foolish Things" ("It?s the kiss at the end."). Newhall?s poignant, powerful delivery brings a new intimacy to the former?s bittersweet lyrics and indelible melody, and her savvy take on the Marvell & Strachey jazz standard bookend a collection that takes the listener through the borderlands of life and love, heart and soul. The album?s introspective title track was written by Nashville-based Grammy-winner Marcus Hummon and Kent E. Blazey. Seven of the album?s ten songs are Newhall?s own, and each one is a showcase for the versatility of her talents as singer, pianist and writer.

CD Reviews

DESTINED TO BECOME A CLASSIC

L. Black | Colorado | 09/02/2006

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Every now then an artist makes an album with so much innate smoothness and simplicity that you forget all the complexity behind the process. Jeanne Newhall's Wild Blue is such an album--a classic compilation like Tapestry or Sweet Baby James, to be listened to over and over. I truly enjoy how beautifully and eloquently one song flows so easily into the next, taking me on a journey that's seems vaguely familiar.

Wild Blue is her best so far

"My husband and I have been Jeanne Newhall fans for about 5 years. We find her newest CD to be the best one so far. We play it while working on our computers (all day), during a gathering or outdoors at a BBQ. We highly recommend Jeanne's best yet."

"I am a big fan of Jeanne and have most of her CD's. This one is different. Something has changed and I can't put my finger on it, plus I really like it! I love the music! My favorites are Ev'rything But The Sun and The real story. Check out the samples it will have you rushing for more on the complete CD."
