"A fabulous young woman with the most gorgeous voices... sultry and sexy, she's the best thing in jazz since the double bass." -m-of-s.co.uk/jazznblues

Sultry crooner Cynthia Basinet makes excellent use of her impressive pipes on these lush, languid, and oh so lovely numbers... no matter how you choose to listen they're a gorgeous treat. -download.com

"Now, we have Harry Connick Jr. and Cynthia Basinet, two of my favourites of new-age Jazz musicians. Music with a laid-back style, yet lilthe and precise with their expressions, my favourite." -jazz for anytime of the day, anywhere

"Had vocalist, Cynthia Basinet been born seventy-eighty years ago, she might as well have been a household name. Well, the Jazz Age has come and gone, but Basinet has such a mesmerizing voice and such an alluring way with a love song that it's all but inconceivable her name won't be recognized in a fair mount of households before she's through." -Dave Reitzes of mPlode.com

"Very talented vocalist making the transition from gauzy but tough Dream Pop to sophisticated, satin-draped jazz singing. The Fiona Apple-meets-Galaxie 500 rock material (featured on CD- "BLUED") also shows off Basinet's very real vocal gifts, but radio stations are picking up on her supper club take on standards. She retains Julie London's sexy aloofness, but truth be told, this young talent has a stronger set of pipes than the famed, whispering torch singer. "Haunted Heart" - a remake from the movie, "The Two Jakes" is a rarely performed standard but Basinet navigates its difficult changes easily. Her sassy "Santa Baby" would have had Dean Martin cocking his eyebrows, and her lovely reading of "Someone To Watch Over Me" cuts deep into the emotional core of the song. ...As it stands she could knock Michelle Pfeiffer off the top of the piano." -listen.com

The bio blurb-

Cynthia "c." Basinet, a throwback to an earlier era of sultry style and elegance, is a gorgeous singer, dancer, actress and model. The leggy comedic redhead began her career as a fashion model in San Francisco.

After five more years of international modeling successes in Paris (where she learned to speak fluent French and studied French cinematography), London and Milan, she returned to Los Angeles. Later, after appearing in music videos for the likes of Roy Orbison and the Babys, she used her talent array to bridge into acting appearing in movies, TV shows and national commercials.

Always a classically trained musician, since childhood (when she first learned to play the flute, sax and sing) and an astute businesswoman, Basinet established an entirely new channel of distribution for her music using the Internet to bypass the usual Hollywood and recording industry path to bring her releases directly to listeners around the World. With worldwide radio play and millions of downloads (however, often credited to Marilyn Monroe, who never recorded the song) she has created an entertainment phenomenon with her rendition of "Santa Baby".

She continues recording and acting while using her music to raise awareness for many, including a trip in May/June of '01 to refugee camps in the Western Sahara. Also a single mom, she currently resides in Los Angeles, CA.

*****I Love It
Reviewer: Daniel Wahl from Charlotte, NC

There's something about music that can change your entire mood. A certain song can make you ecstatic, another can make you sad or depressed. Don't count on this small collection of tunes to invoke either of the above emotions in you however.

The smooth, seductive voice of C. Basinet will undoubtedly put you in a romantic mood--a mood where you feel how wonderful it is to fall in love and what a beautiful world it is where such romance can not only be sought after but achieved. The tracks, each and every one (but especially "Santa Baby" and a personal favorite "Tea for Two"), include soft, melodious tunes serving as the perfect complement to what I believe is a perfect voice.

All in all, this is the type of music for anyone who likes the prospect of falling in love, or the feeling of being in love, with a wonderful person. It is great music, for great people, wherever and whenever they meet.
