BOSTON: OF EDEN: GRAHAM RUSSELL AND KATIE MCGHIE
Jazz singer Melissa Stylianou will celebrate the release of her new CD "No Regrets" at THE JAZZ BISTRO (251 Victoria Street, Toronto, ONT, CA - 416-363-5299) on Thursday through Saturday, November 20th through 22nd at 9:00 pm. Melissa has been turning heads and capturing hearts since the turn of this century, from her native Toronto to her adopted home of New York City, from intimate club residencies to top festival stages. Stylianou's newest album - No Regrets, her fifth disc and second for the New York-based Anzic Records - is about the joy of spontaneity. She recorded a set of jazz standards and other favorites in a live-to-two-track, noon-to-night studio session backed by a trio of New York all-stars: pianist Bruce Barth, double-bassist Linda Oh and drummer Matt Wilson, with guest spots by clarinetist Anat Cohen and alto saxophonist Billy Drewes. As ever, Stylianou's singing is a delight, reinforcing the description by Grammy-nominated pianist Fred Hersch. There is a $15-$20 cover.
Of Eden, a new acoustic pop folk duo created by Air Supply's Graham Russell and singer-songwriter Katie McGhie, performs at THE REGATTABAR at the Charles Hotel (1 Bennett Street, Cambridge, MA - 617-395-7757) on Thursday, November 20th at 7:30 pm. The two met at an awards gala in 2012 and their passion for music instantly sparked a conversation. A few weeks later, Katie met up with Graham to lend her voice to a new project he was working on. He had asked her to sing some background vocals on a few songs, but by the end of the first day, they both knew there was something more there. That very night they were asked to do a show at a local pub and they eagerly accepted, even though they had never actually sung together before. The show was a hit and from that moment on, Of Eden was born. With Graham's long history as a songwriter and Katie's background as a singer, the two have created a new sound using only their voices and a guitar. Their debut album 'Feel', released in November 2013, offers everything from beautiful pop ballads, gritty folk songs, and even a touch of rock and rol This past year, Of Eden wrote several songs for various movies and even a new musical. They are currently working on their second album and will be touring throughout several US cities during 2014. There is a $20 cover.
