The Pulse of Entertainment: Rebecca Jade's ‘Shade of Jade' is Laced Beautifully with Jazz (December 6, 2022) - "I feel the album has a flow...things people can
relate to...love, loss, endurance," said Jazz singer Rebecca Jade about her latest album "A
Shade of Jade," which is a beautiful Jazz project that is laced with R&B and Pop.
Co-produced
with Carnell Harrell, the project features Dave Koz (sax), Eric Darius (sax), Harrell (keyboard), Kyle Bolden (guitar), Raymond
McKinley (bass), Marcus "Slim" Shaw (bass), Tommy Aros (percussion), Alfred Howard (percussion), Alex Bailey (drums),
Marta Z (violin and viola), Erdis Maxhelaku (cello), Derek Cannon (trumpet), John Rekevics (sax, flute, baritone), and Charles
Streeter, Sr. (drums). Veronica May co-wrote "Bottle Up Magic" featuring Darius on sax.
Jade tours with
Jazz living legend Dave Koz and Eric Darius. She just ended a tour with Eric Darius that took her to Newport Beach, Dallas,
St. Louis, Barbados, Daytona Beach, and many other cities. Rebecca started performing on the Dave Koz Christmas tour that
ends December 23, 2022, and then she is performing for Rick Braun's New Year's Eve shows December 30 - 31st.
Rebecca
Jade's vocals are smooth in the Jazz realm and popping in the Pop realm, with R&B laced throughout all her vocal deliveries.
Her musical backers are all beautifully arranged for the "A Shade of Jade" project. Executive produced by Rebecca;
the album offers ten tracks. My favorite songs include #1 "Show Me" because her vocals are so smooth, the background
vocals are harmony tight, and the guitar playing by Kyle Bolden is superb; #3 "My Reason" because of the lovely
vocal delivery by Jade and the sax playing by Dave Koz is so distinctive, and #10 "Insane" because I love how it
switches tempo from R&B to tradition Jazz, from slow and sexy Pop vocals to crazy up-tempo Jazz, and I love Bolden's guitar
playing, the keyboard playing of Carnell, and the drum playing by Wallace Walker, III - all so distinctive that they come
across as performing solos, laced with the beautiful vocals of Rebecca Jade. www.RebeccaJade.com SYNDICATED
