about

Andrea's first recording, initially intended as a demo...but when you've got ten songs in the can, you've got a CD! This reflects Andrea's first forays into singing jazz, with a tasty collection of standards from the Great American Songbook

. . . her voice is clear and rich and she slides off the beat just enough to really swing while her backing trio is inventive and tight. The set is mostly familiar stuff with leanings towards the blues. Her languid swing on "What's Your Story, Morning Glory" and "Angel Eyes" is perfect and her a capella introduction to Billie Holiday's "Left Alone" captures the song's stark power. This is a good low-key session. Wolper seems to really understand the nuances of jazz singing.
Jerome Wilson, Cadence

Andrea Wolper's CD is a most welcome effort. This young woman has a swing that never stops.
