Laura Crema - Almost Blue
Marke Andrews, The Vancouver Sun
ALMOST BLUE
CREMA MAKES LOW NOTES GLOW LIKE COALS
Vocalist Laura Crema opens her debut disc, recorded in Banff, Alta., with the bittersweet Elvis Costello title track, a ballad on which Crema communicates the emotional depth of the lyric, ably assisted by pianist David Restivo and bassist Kodi Hutchinson. Crema has a warm, resonant voice: on Someone in Love, she bathes the sustained notes with vibrato, and begining Cole Porter's All of You with just Hutchinson's bass for accompaniment, Crema makes the low notes glow like coals. The great Kenny Werner plays piano on a bluesy Stormy Weather, perfectly complementing the singer's lines.
