Description
Formidable new jazz talent Faye Patton has recorded a new CD Tell Me I'm A Sinner. Her original songs of love, loss, passion and inspiration take on a new level of luminosity in this collection which is entirely live, acoustic voice/grand piano. An atmospheric selection of tunes which combine neatly crafted blues piano arrangments and rich,poetic lyrics. Think... Scott Joplin meets the Brothers Grimm in an enhanted garden of showtime jazz/folk fusion and unrequited desire.
Here's a review by groundbreaking British jazz singer Sue Mccreeth:
'Faye Patton's 2004 debut 'Tell Me I'm A Sinner' showcases an angular, strong, individual, and interesting set of self-penned songs. She sings and accompanies herself on the piano, and it is clear from the outset that this is a musician and vocalist to be reckoned with. Her melodies twist and turn with an impeccable sense of timing and tuning. She has a soulful voice and the ability to place every single last word with whichever tone she chooses from her varied palette, and she is emphatic in her choices. She drives a mean rhythm, almost hypnotically so, on most of the tracks. This is that magical kind of solo piano that moves and grooves in the bass, whilst bitter harmonies and counter melodies are cut in the other skilful and steady hand.
Her lyrics are light years away from generic love-la-la. Each song in this set of nine tells an intriguing and gutsy story. She captures conflicts, disappointments, raw passions, and empathies. "Gallows Flowers" intimates the epic and historical edge in her writing and "Woman on the Tracks" throws back to a silent movie staple which was well overdue for reframing. Here the idea becomes a heartfelt declaration of support for said woman. What's Faye gonna do to help? Well she's gonna get right out there and lay down by her side of course! And she has a voice of such frankness, honesty and warmth that she could make you believe if you were tied down on those tracks she's be there by your side.
You can put Faye Patton on as background music if you wish because her grooves are so strong, but if you do listen you may find that she gets right under your rib cage and pulls at the muscles holding up your heart and lungs. And that is very, very good fun!'
