FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE!
JAZZ SINGER DYAN KANE RELEASES HER SECOND CD, SOUL OF THE WATER, IN OCTOBER! (Interplay Records/Dollbaby Music)

On a diverse set that includes some surprising treatments of standards, Dyan Kane utilizes an all-star cast of top Los Angeles jazz artists including pianists Dominique Taplin & Robert Turner, bassists Kevin O’Neal & Dmitry Goredetsky, saxophonist Frederick Keith Fiddmont, flutist Louis Van Taylor, guitarist Joe Gaeta, and drummers Donald Barrett & Lyndon Rochelle.

An adventurous singer with a beautiful voice and a strong sense of humor, Dyan Kane builds upon the success of her previous CD Dyatribe with the release of her latest recording, Soul Of The Water.

Her wide-ranging program begins with a surprisingly uptempo version of “Summertime” which features her cooking with her rhythm section. Ms. Kane contributed the next two songs, her medium-tempo jazz waltz ‘Papi’s Back In Town” and her fetching and lively love story “Dial Rio For Me” which is partly spoken and partly sung in colorful fashion.

Dyan Kane next performs one of her trademark songs, a joyfully eccentric version of “Caravan” which includes some of her inventive scat-singing, as does "Summertime". Her voice is quite warm on “Moonglow” and she is exuberant on “Brazil” before excelling on the most uptempo rendition of “Lover Man” ever recorded, virtually reinventing the song. The singer concludes the set by showing that her musical interests reach beyond jazz with her rhythmic transformation of “I Can’t Make You Love Me” and her electronic version of Kurt Elling’s “Esperanto.”

Dyan Kane grew up in New York City, singing music from an early age while pursuing her interest in acting. She worked for a long period serving drinks at the Blue Note where she soaked in the nightly jazz, learning directly from such greats as Oscar Peterson, Nancy Wilson, Betty Carter, Sarah Vaughan, Carmen McRae and Jon Hendricks. In addition to sitting in at other clubs, she participated in the 4 a.m. jam sessions at the Blue Note with trumpet great Ted Curson, developing both her jazz foundation and her unique chance taking style.

Since that time Dyan has relocated to the Los Angeles area and worked with such notables as saxophonist Rickey Woodard, the late flutist Sam Most, pianists Jeff Goldblum, Theo Saunders and Bradley Young, bassists Ryan Cross and John B. Williams, and drummers Clayton Cameron and Rayford Griffin among many others. On her previous album Dyatribe, she interpreted and reinvented seven songs including “Eleanor Rigby,” “How Insensitive,” and an extensive reworking of Radiohead’s “Pyramid Song.”

The release of Soul Of The Water is a major step forward for the attractive and endlessly inventive Dyan Kane whose unique and accessible singing will be reaching a wider audience beyond Southern California.
