Jane Monheit – Taking a Chance On Love

Jane Monheit’s new CD... the songs are amazing, the band is fantastic and Jane “is” Jane Monheit: the singer we can’t get enough of, the singer that brings us back to the 40’s everytime she sings. And that’s a very good thing, at least to me; being able to close my eyes and imagine myself as if I was some place else, another time, another era… it’s fantastic. At the same time she gives us something new, always.
The musicians are so good too… Hope she comes to Portugal anytime soon, because I’ve missed two concerts and I won’t miss another one.

Speaking of concerts! Maria Rita goes to Porto’s Coliseum in November 21st and she’s in Lisboa in November 19th too but in Lisbon the venue is, in my opinion, too big for a concert that requires some intimacy. So I’m going to Porto to see her and I think it’ll be… wow…

Listening to Jane Monheit in “I Won’t Dance” (a duet with Michael Bublé)… «I know that music leads the way to romance so if I hold you in my arms I won’t dance, I won’t dance…» - Beautiful
