O’s Notes: Jaimee has a delicate voice with lots of depth, emotion and dynamics. She has been influenced by many female jazz vocal legends especially Billie Holiday as she carves out her signature. Paul’s accompaniment is excellent with Beggie Adair’s (p) rhythm section and the Jeff Steinberg Orchestra that includes lush strings! You’ve heard all of the songs but not like this! Jaimee puts new life into these thirteen standards. We liked “Cry Me A River”, “Whatever Lola Wants” and “Lover Man” in a very good set.
