SARAH BRINDELL

Keyboardist and singer/songwriter Sarah Brindell has been cooed over from east coast (the “newly minted diva of pop, funk and jazz” – Boston Globe) to west (“simply mesmerizing” – Time Out San Francisco). Dreaming Shoes, her second studio release following Piece Of Mind and Live At The Paradise, which evolves out of soul, folk, pop and Brazilian, as well as Caribbean rhythms, is an inspired journey from beginning to one, well, you just won’t want to end.


CAMERON GREENLEE

Stepping out from behind his day job as keyboardist for the seminal Jamaican ska group, The Skatalites, Cameron Greenlee’s debut release in which he takes the role of bandleader, Cameron and the Trenton Street Collaborative, fuses wicked roots reggae with delightful jazz alongside funky guitar riffs, beautiful piano, Rastafarian percussive beats, and triumphant horns.


SHEA ROSE (Cambridge, MA show only)

Boston native Shea Rose has been described as the female Lenny Kravitz meets Lauryn Hill. Shea was recently nominated for a 2010 New England Urban Music Award in the R&B Female category after opening the event in 2009. Shea also opened the Berklee ‘Women in Rock’ concert at the Berkelee Peformance Center last fall and was featured on Berklee's Heavy Rotation Records' Dorm Sessions 6 CD. She recently collaborated with Cindy Blackman on a six-song EP.

SARAH BRINDELL’S SOULFUL ‘DREAMING SHOES’ (NAYA RECORDS) IS ECLECTIC AND ADVENTUROUS























Don’t let the title fool you. Sarah Brindell’s sophomore studio album, Dreaming Shoes, is not an REM-inducing record. Dreaming Shoes about going places you have never been. Intimate and adventurous, the album is constantly growing, evolving out of soul, folk, pop and jazz and infused with critical elements of Brazilian and Caribbean rhythms. Packed with individual talent—Mauricio Zottarelli (Hiromi, Esperanza Spaulding), Yaure Muniz, (Buena Vista Social Club), Nate Edgar and Mike Keenan (John Brown’s Body) as well as Aaron Bellamy and Amy Bowls (Sam Kininger Band)—Dreaming Shoes maintains its cohesiveness throughout, refusing to lean in any one direction or on any one musician. Brindell, whose previous efforts have been cooed over from east coast (the “newly minted diva of funk, pop and jazz” – Boston Globe) to west (“simply mesmerizing” – Time Out San Francisco), says, “I approached Dreaming Shoes differently because I wanted the artists to play to the song, not for their own chops”. Dreaming Shoes is available March 1 everywhere online and the CD is available March 25.
