It finds the musician amongst some of her favorite artists - Jon Bentley (saxophones), Paul Rushka (bass), Paul Townsend (drums) with guest appearances by Peggy Lee (cello), Seamus Blake (voice, guitar), Evan Arntzen (clarinet) and Miranda Clingwall (flute and electronics). This album showcases the writing and vocals of Lebeck â in songs like Gone By; A Cloud, A Storm; Round and Round; Lost in a Dream; and Everywhere But Here. Instrumentals Starlight and Lost and Found. Ambient and creative improvisations Nelson Sound, Intro, Confusion and Carnivale.
And four carefully chosen vocal covers â Lennon and McCartneyâs Julia (a duet with Seamus Blake), Thomas Mendez Sosaâs Cucurrucucu Paloma, Jazz standard Smile, and Emiliana Torriniâs Fishermanâs Woman. A departure from her first effort Living in Pieces, the musician has noticeably evolved and Songs and Melodies is the start of a new journey for her fans and listeners.
