Jamie Broumas

Critical Acclaim for Jamie’s new CD, Wild Is Love:

--“Watching –- and listening to –- Jamie Broumas develop over the course of a quarter-of-a-century hasbeen this writer's pleasure. The combination of gorgeous tone, a convincing interpretive ability, and sheer swing on tune after tune on her new album Wild is Love is irrefutable evidence that she is today a world-class jazz singer. From the ache in her voice on Harold Arlen's "Last Night When We Were Young" to the horn-like phrasing of her scat on Sammy Cahn's "Day By Day" Jamie proves that she can do it all. That her taste is impeccable is seen in the choice of materials as well as in the quartet of professionals whom she brought into the studio as accompanists. On board for the session are Steve Williams, who traveled the world as the late Shirley Horn's drummer, pianist and arranger Steve Rudolph, multi-reed player Charlie Young, and bassist Michael Bowie.” -- W.
