Vocalist Kris Russell is pleased to announce the release her new single
“Down in Brazil,” a contemporary Bossa Nova with music and lyrics
written by Jazz singer and award-winning artist and composer Michael
Franks, with a new arrangement by Kris Russell and the Mystery Jazz
Ensemble.
It will be featured on smoothjazz.com, Global Radio and other radio stations in the USA and around the world on May 15, 2017.
Kris
is excited and eager to build on the momentum from her rst single
released last year, a sophisticated, sultry, symphonic Bossa Nova with
arrangement by Richard Rome, of Cole Porter’s classic Jazz Standard, “I
Concentrate On You.”
“Down
in Brazil” was recorded at StudioPros in Los Angeles and arranged by
Kris Russell and The Mystery Jazz Ensemble, six talented session
musicians who all have a repertoire of major label credits. It is a more
contemporary and driving Bossa Nova that has the Smooth Jazz feel,
because of the emphasis and the inclusion of the guitar and saxophone.
With the release of this second new single Kris decided to incorporate a
newer sound and still include the traditional instrumentation and sound
of traditional Bossa Nova that she loves. She e ortlessly blends into
this new recording of “Down in Brazil” the style and the sophisticated
sound of those early powerful in uences of the great jazz singers she
heard while growing up.
Brazil,
with its pulsating, rhythmic sounds, incredible food, gorgeous sandy
beaches, unique smells, vibrant colors and beautiful music, inspired
Kris to create her newest CD single “Down in Brazil.”
Jazz
Vocalist Kris Russell was born and raised in Sacramento, California. As
a teenager, she discovered her passion for singing jazz music, but
recalls singing from the early age of seven years old. While most of her
friends were listening to folk and rock music, Kris was listening to
and learning from her parents and their vast collection of jazz
recordings. Both her parents were working jazz musicians, and together
they formed the “Jerry Murphy Quartet” entertaining in and around
Sacramento and Northern California for over 40 years.
