See the name, and one of two expectations for this CD are sure to come to mind: (1) slightly gothic pop a la Evanescence or (2) tropical rock. Both would be incorrect. This is not the same angelic-voiced Amy Lee of Evanescence fame, nor is this Amy Lee playing the same music she did with Jimmy Buffett. This is straightforward jazz -- and it’s skillfully and attractively played. Her cover of Bill Withers’s “Use Me” features some scorching sax, and it’ll probably receive the most attention because of the Withers connection. “Across the Water” slows the tempo; it is cinematic and gorgeous, evoking images of a romantic evening cruise. More genial moods are represented on “Coming Home” and the especially catchy “In The Sun.” Come to Paradise Brewing Company and see Amy Lee on December 24th and 25th.
