Lizz Wright - Fellowship

Lizz Wright - Hit The Ground
Lizz Wright is in possession of an extraordinary voice, one described by the NY Times as "luminous... smoky and perfectly pitched...one of the most wondrous rhythm-and-blues instruments of our time." She is also an accomplished songwriter who resists easy categorization, seamlessly combining intimate India.Aria-meets- Odetta styled soul/folk and smoldering torch ballads with earthy, gospel-tinged blues and rhythmic jazz undertones. "While I absolutely adore jazz," the 30-year-old rural Georgia native says, "when I'm alone I listen more to singer/ songwriters like Jeff Buckley and Damien Rice, whose songs [...]

Lizz Wright vs. Randy Crawford

Aug 5, 2010, 6:22am Caipirinha Lounge
Lizz Wright vs. Randy Crawford One of the curiosities of Luanda's recent Jazz Festival was that the slot following Waldemar Bastos' performance on Sunday suffered not one but two alterations. At first the organizers had counted on Diane Reeves, but she had to cancel due to a scheduling conflict. The next option was Lizz Wright, but she too had to cancel at the last minute due to exhaustion. Thankfully Randy Crawford and Joe Sample were readily available to make the long trip from LA to Luanda and perform at the Festival. But that was after I had fallen in love with Lizz Wright's voice. I'd [...]

On Race and the Folk Community (with Jazzfolk from KJ Denhert and Lizz Wright)

Nov 29, 2008, 7:39pm Cover Lay Down
The relative dearth of both musicians and audience members of color in the American folk scene is both a running gag and an embarrassing secret; as evidence, I note that I once saw Vance Gilbert remark onstage to Ruthie Foster that, with both of them in the same songcircle, "every black person at the festival is on stage right now - we should start a movement!" While Gilbert's attempt at brash humor may not have been technically accurate, his comment - and the uncomfortable laughter which followed it - speaks to [...]

Lizz Wright Performs 'Speak Your Heart' at NPR
Before I forget to mention, these two have made what are among my favorite albums of this year. Mmm-hmm. Violinist turned singer Joan Wasser aka Joan as Police Woman [pictured] recorded sessions with Antony and Rufus Wainright before releasing an album of her own called Real Life three years ago. She squashed any fears of a sophomore slump with To Survive, a record that plays with the same

Cover Girls, Vol. 17

Oct 25, 2006, 9:57pm Womenfolk
Cover Girls, Vol. 17 Lizz Wright Stop On her second album, Dreaming Wide Awake , singer Lizz Wright continues her penchant for reinterpreting traditional material with her smokey, cool delivery. And while still only in her twenties, it's remarkable at just how confident Wright brings these songs to new light. One standout in particular is Wright's rendition of 'Stop,' a song written by Joe Henry and originally performed by Henry's sister-in-law, pop superstar Madonna who reworked the song and [...]
