Lisa Hilton - Twilight & Blues (CD)

Reviews:

"The whole disc has an ambience that draws you in while swinging with emotion. Thoughtful and well crafted from start to finish, this is a must have for jazz fans." All About Jazz

"Hilton uses blue notes to create an intimate world of beauty that is true to the artist she is. Hilton's originality of vision is her strength, and her light touch is a lovely as she is and as addictive as the waves breaking near her Malibu home." JazzChicago.net

"A definite West Coast cool vibe and an impressionist intent on creating and sustaining moods." George Kanzler / All About Jazz
