SAXOPHONIST PAULA ATHERTON

As if from nowhere, and courtesy of her brand new project ‘Groove With Me’, acclaimed singer, songwriter and woodwind player Paula Atherton has dramatically emerged as a major player on the contemporary jazz and pop music scene. This sensational collection features eleven of Atherton’s original compositions plus one well-chosen cover, and with the perfect blend of instrumental and vocal cuts, oozes quality throughout. The production of Lou Gimenez (who also makes significant contributions on acoustic and electric guitars) is never anything short of top-notch, and fantastic guest musicians lend a hand, making the entire recording a total delight.
