Rebecca Martin has shaped a singular career devoted to the beauty and possibility of pure creative discovery. After getting her start as co-founder of the pioneering jazz-pop duo Once Blue, the New York-based singer/songwriter went on to release a series of acclaimed solo albums animated by the quiet force of her captivating vocals, and collaborating along the way with her husband, the jazz bassist Larry Grenadier and luminaries Argentine pianist Guillermo Klein and legendary jazz drummer Paul Motian.In one of her boldest turns to date, Martin’s new album SHE (Sunnyside Records) marks her first body of work made entirely on her own. Martin graces every moment of SHE with the clarity and character of her distinct vocal phrasing. As revealed throughout her new recording, Martin’s commitment to creating space informs nearly all aspects of her artistry, including everything from the album’s sparse orchestration to her underlying desire to summon a gratifying sense of stillness within all those who listen. Rebecca will be joined by Clare Manchon on background vocals.
“Rebecca Martin has a warm, unguarded voice, an instrument of modesty and forbearance…with her own songs, she manifests a deeper, more easeful authority. She can make the same phrase seem philosophical and conversational, and about as natural as sighing.” – The New York Times
