After eight years of immersing herself in the vocal jazz tradition by studying with the best teachers and getting her tail wet onstage, Carrie Wicks gathers some of Seattle's finest for her debut recording. With co-producer Bill Anschell on piano, Jeff Johnson on bass, Bryon Vannoy on drums, and Hans Teuber on woodwinds, Wicks displays a veteran's sense of pacing and repertoire to compliment her unique and understated vocal approach. Homage is paid to Blossom Dearie with "Everything I've Got" to Nat King Cole with "I'm Lost" (in six), and to Billie Holiday for her rendition of "Baby, Get Lost." Wicks's angelic tone mourns the story in "Lilac Wine," Elvis Costello's jazz ballad "Almost Blue" hits deep and "Comes Love" is dark and foreboding yet swinging. "I'll Get Around to It" is a stirring debut from an inspired new voice.
