Editorial Reviews
TONIC recalls pitch-perfect vocal groups, singing interesting harmonies and rhythms with a sound that's refreshingly new...
Product Description
Chicago's top vocal jazz cats set the new standard in modern Swing with slick harmonies on pop-jazz classics and smokin' original grooves. This is the future of the American Songbook!
TONIC Vintage Vocals deliver the swank on popular jazz favs and smokin' originals in a mix that belongs among the best popular jazz CDs in any collection. Enjoy all 13 cuts on a stylish ride through a wide variety of genres and sounds, from Latin to lounge, jump to lush.
Think Manhattan Transfer meets The Rat Pack...with a little Louis Prima thrown in just to keep things light! This is a fun album that reminds the listener why Tin Pan Alley and the great songwriters and performers of the 1930s, 40s & 50s were hands-down the coolest, most solid music icons of all time.
Immediately welcomed as a breath of fresh air in the realm of modern popular jazz, TONIC's self-titled debut CD continues to receive coast-to-coast airplay on jazz and A/C stations in over 100 large and small radio markets, both nationally and internationally. It was featured on Dave Radlauer's syndicated Jazz Rhythm series and was touted by Julio Martinez of Variety as a contender for the Jazz Vocal Grammy in 2005. 7 of the tracks have held Broadjam Top Ten ratings in as many as 11 categories for over nine months and several of the originals have been featured in television programs and film projects.
Put this disc in, hit play, pour a cocktail and dig what critics have dubbed "a modern journey back to pure vintage style!"
