A long awaited live recording bringing together jazz vocalist Tianna Hall with her musical partner in The Houston Jazz Band, guitarist Greg Petito along with other members including pianist Ted Wenglinski, acoustic bassist Andrew Gordon & drummer Sam Knight. Recorded at the Kawai Piano Gallery of Houston and audio engineered by Westside Recording Studios. This work is a great deal in dedication and homage as part of the process in saying goodbye to Dana Rogers, Kellye Gray, Marsha Frazier & Mike Nase. They were great friends and musical mentors of Tianna's as well as some of her bandmates on this project so this felt like a fitting way to try and celebrate them and their influence on the gulf coast jazz sound. The concert video will be available soon, recorded by Westside Studios, as well.

Tianna's fourth release revisits the musical kinship she shared in her debut recording with The Mexico City Jazz Trio. They were flown to Houston this time and spent a week performing and recording this album. With nods to jazz greats by instrumental quotations, this collaboration also revisits many popular songs from both Tianna & drummer Gabriel's youth including Radiohead, Stone Temple Pilots and 80's band 10cc. The musical growth of all of these stellar musicians is evident when compared to their debut collection of recordings within this ensemble. Miguel Villicaña's exceptionally sophisticated arrangements along with Agustin Bernal's expert leadership make this a timeless and world class recording a tremendous representation of Tianna Hall's abilities as a vocalist and collaborator.

Tianna Hall's 3rd album release, her debut for label Blue Bamboo Music, is her most versatile yet. She opens the album with "My Blue Heaven" & "I Wanna Be Around" swinging the paint off the walls with collaborators Mike Wheeler & Mike Nase on guitars. Third on the collection is the title track, "Never Let Me Go", a lush arrangement by producer/guitarist Mike Wheeler that showcases Tianna's vocal depth and features cellist Lisa Vosdoganes. Another highlight, Jobim's "Samba Do Avaio" might lead you to think that you are listening to another vocalist altogether. This track is sung authentically in true brazilian flair with portuguese augmented by performances from percussionist James Metcalfe, cellist Lisa Vosdoganes and guitarist Mike Wheeler. Jobim's "Fotografia" is also included later in the album with another delicious arrangement from producer/guitarist Mike Wheeler featuring cellist Lisa Vosdoganes. This recording evokes a romantic evening on a brazilian terrace overlooking the sea with sumptuous portuguese and english vocals from Miss Hall. The rest of the album includes many hard swinging tunes from Tianna with guitarists Mike Nase & Mike Wheeler including "Secret Love" & "You And The Night & The Music" along with an outstanding version of Cole Porter's "I Love You", a swanky waltz of "Charade", a sexy take on "You Don't Know What Love Is" and cozy favorites "I Can't Get Started (With You)" & "Everything Happens to Me". This outstanding collection of standards with a taste of Brazilian sophistication & luscious vocal interpretation is sure to be a favorite.
