Coming Alive is an eclectic mix of selections from the American songbook, Brazilian tradition and contemporary pop. A talented group of musicians comprising David Epstein (piano), Robert Sabin (bass), Jeff Davis (drums) and Doug Hinrichs (percussion) back Joy in delivering fresh arrangements of less-often-heard tunes by celebrated songwriters such as Jimmy Van Heusen, Jule Styne, Harold Arlen, Leslie Bricusse and Antonio Carlos Jobim. Joy is an experienced performer on the New York City scene. A native of Riegelsville, Pennsylvania, she moved to the city for work in the investment banking field, but ultimately crossed over to the entertainment industry and has been performing steadily around Manhattan for the past 7 years. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Jazz News :: home page |
