Ее предыдущий альбом Alone Together®️2019 был номинирован на премию GRAMMY и достиг первой строчки в лучшей сотне года РадиоТопа JazzWeek и разумеется обозревался на моем канале. Я люблю романтический свинг, - говорит Кэтрин. Это песни, которые каким-то образом меня вдохновляют или трогают. Когда я нахожу песню, которая мне нравится, она преследует меня, пока я еë не выучу. Она дочь первопроходцев и легендарных джазовых музыкантов - пианиста, руководителя оркестра, композитора и аранжировщика Luis Russell и басистки, гитаристки и вокалистки Carline Ray. От сюда такая глубокая связь с выбранным материалом от Билли Холидей, Бетти Картер до Нэт Кинг Коула и Луи Армстронга. Этот альбом своеобразное приглашение отправиться в путешествие на сотню лет назад и погрузится в винтажный джаз мало известных, но очень симпатичных песен.
