Night Songs & LullabiesOpis:Vocalist Kim Scanlon recorded these 13 familiar tunes while pregnant and so, she says, each is about an "utter devotion" to someone she "had never met." The tunes range across the American popular traditions--from Alec Wilder's "The Starlighter" and "The Night Will Never Stay" to Harold Arlen's "Hit the Road to Dreamland" and "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" to Duke Ellington's "Warm Valley"--and they get a subtle swing treatment from Scanlon and her accompanists. Scanlon is blessed with a voice that's gentle enough to sound ideal in the lullaby realm, but it also has enough fiber when kicked up to sound grandly jazzy. Plus, it's a rarity to find someone gutsy enough to sing Jobim's "Waters of March" as a song for children. It works, like each of these songs, in a unique crossover between singer/songwriter folk, swinging small-group jazz, and straightforward lullabies. --Andrew Bartlett Product Description Seattle area vocalist Kim Scanlon is one of the Northwest's hidden musical treasures.
