Heather Bambrick's voice has been described as a combination of "the cool smoothness of Diana Krall, with the rich honey sounds of Ella Fitzgerald". She has recorded and/or performed at some of Canada's top Jazz events, festivals, and venues with artists like Phil Nimmons, Oliver Jones, Kenny Wheeler, Peter Appleyard, and Darmon Meader.
Heather's voice and/or music has been heard on radio and television commercials, in film scores and soundtracks, and on made-for-TV movie soundtracks. She has recorded backing vocals on a number of projects, and remains a consistent success in her live performances. Her stage persona has been described as a "love child of Bette Midler and Jann Arden but not without influences from those big-name Jazz ladies of the 40s and 50s."
After spending five years recording and touring with the award-winning Beehive Singers, Heather released her debut solo CD "It's About Time" to rave reviews. In its first month of release, the recording hit #17 in the first ever Canadian National Jazz Chart. "It's About Time" continues to receive regular airplay on Canadian national radio programs, on stations in New Jersey, Florida, and Alaska, as well as on satellite stations across North America.
The CD has something for everyone: classic standards, fresh unique arrangements, clever and catchy original tunes, outstanding musicianship, and a sensitive vocal delivery that goes from soft and sexy, to offbeat and quirky, to just plain "swingin'"!!!

It's About Time
This album is a winner! This debut glows!
ReplyDeleteStart with track #8 - Prince's "How Come U Don't Call Me Anymore" and you will understand what I say.
"I keep your picture beside my bed
And I still remember everything u said
I always thought our love was so right
I guess I was wrong
I always thought u'd be by my side
Mama, now u're gone
What I wanna know baby, what we had was good
How come u don't call me anymore?
Yeah
Listen
I still light the fire on a rainy night
I still like it better when u holding me tight
Now hold it
Everybody said, everybody said that we should never part
Oh yeah
I always did think we looked kind of cute together myself
Say to me baby, baby, baby, why, why u wanna go and break my heart?
Why'd u wanna do it?
All I wanna know baby, what we had was good
How come u don't call me anymore?
Why don't u call me girl?
Sometimes it feels like I'm gonna die
If u don't call me, mama, girl, u gotta try
Down on my knees beggin' u please, please
Why can't u call me sometime baby, yeah
Just one lousy dime, baby
Why can't u call me sometime?
Oh, no, no
Why on earth can't u just pick up the phone? Yeah
U know I don't like bein' alone
Why?
Why must u torture me?
Why u gotta torment me so?"
