Jane Monheit - The Lovers, The Dreamers And Me (2009) (FLAC)

Concord Records is proud to present the eagerly anticipated new release from Jane Monheit, “The Lovers, The Dreamers And Me.” An ode to songwriters past and present whom Monheit greatly admires, “The Lovers, The Dreamers And Me” is a sumptuously sung passionate song cycle of 13 tracks produced by jazz veteran Matt Pierson.

“I wanted to do something different with this record,” says Monheit, “and so I chose songs that meant a lot to me in many different ways and from a wide range of songwriters and genres - from female artists my age to celebrated legends.” Accompanying Monheit on “The Lovers, The Dreamers And Me” are long-time Monheit band-members Michael Kanan (piano and Fender Rhodes), Rick Montalbano on drums, and Neal Miner on bass, who were joined on the CD by musicians Peter Bernstein (guitar), Stefon Harris (vibes), Seamus Blake (saxophone), Frank Vignola (guitar), Gil Goldstein (piano, accordion), Romero Lubambo (guitar), Antonio Sanchez (drums), Scott Colley (bass) and Bashiri Johnson on percussion.
