REVIEW
"Jeanne Lozier is a fresh voice and one of the hottest blues women on the scene. This new CD needs to come with a warning sticker: "Extreme Danger. May ignite CD player. Use liquid nitrogen spray to cool down your machine after each use." Not even to mention the effect on unsuspecting listeners. And, no--taking a cold shower won't help you either. Jeanne Lozier will tear you up with these fiery, sultry and sexy blues.You better hide this from your wife."

REVIEW
"Queen of Your Dreams-Jeanne Lozier 2005

NJ's local blues diva moves slinky and sure with a blues jones that is killer. She's dark, throaty and sensual with tastes of fire and brimstone that mark nights of pleasure and terror. Roughshod and smoky, Lozier growls and roars with primal power added to a band that oozes Beale Street. Jeanne revels in the yin and yang of love and loss, threat and possesion. She'll be your "sweet sugar mama as long as you rock her sweet and slow." She sure doesn't need no man who carries on night and day. Her rumblings are filled and maximized by the sweet Hammond of Melvin Davis or Ed Haddad and the sax of Dan Cipriano. Gar Francis plays guitar with style and finesse, counterpointing Lozier's richly dangerous pipes while Big Nancy keeps her tin sandwich busy throughout a non-stop, flat out "Beg and Plead." Slowing the pace, "Your Fool No More" sets it straight. It's a tale of no more Miss Nice Girl supporting a no good heartbreaker set to a slow blue groove. "Keeping What i Got" shows the opposite side with joy and happiness to a swinging beat. "Mama Blues" is a soulful burn recounting a family history garnished with burning tears pouring forth from alcohol reddened eyes. The disk boogies on with a violin and sax R&B jam called "You Can't Stay Here" and closes dark and blue in homage to a man too good to be true while "Loving A Woman Like Me." Rolling out of the industrial heart of New Jersey, Jeanne Lozier knows blues and belts 'em out hot and rough. The edges are sharp, the attitude unpolished and the blues are true.

Jeanne Lozier
âQueen of Your Dreamsâ

The New York area is a mecca of unsigned talent, and among our undiscovered gems is Jeanne Lozier. Possessed of a unique voice and powerful determination Jeanne has succeeded where others have struggled. She has self-produced a remarkable first album "Queen of Your Dreams" which thoroughly displays her talent as a vocalist. Jeanne Lozier's voice is powerful enough so that she can growl with the best, but she always sounds like a woman. Her band for this cd includes songwriter/guitarist Gar Francis who wrote or co-wrote all the songs, three with Jeanne. Gar shares the guitar chores with Mark E Bowers and James âTâ Tilson. The band also includes Dan Cipriano who not only plays saxophone but is credited as being the "horn section". Dan is most noted for his work with Wilson Pickett. Tim Lautz and Melvin Davis handle the keyboards while the rhythm section is made of Tony Storm, bass and Glenn Johnson, drums.

The album starts with Gar Francisâs guitar intro, then Jeanne sings, âI am the Queen of Your Dreams, I come to you in your sleep". Other highlights include Dan Cipriano playing multiple saxes, overdubbed and sounding like a full horn section when Jeanne sings âIâm Keeping What I Gotâ. Jeanne Lozier however saves the best for last and closes with the fantastic âLoving a Woman Like Meâ which is the track receiving most airplay. Jeanne Lozier will be appearing with The Dave Gross Band at The New York Blues and Jazz Society next member band showcase to be held Sunday August 13th at The Bitter End 147 Bleecker St Greenwich Village, New York City. Jeanne Lozier is a young talent with an impressive first album. www.jeannelozier.com
