Yola Nash is often described as a European-American treasure, for her media, art, and humanitarian achievements. As an internationally accomplished singer, she has performed for Pope John Paul II and successfully debuted on the Top 40 AC radio charts in the USA. She made history by becoming the first Polish-American singer to perform and record with the world-renowned, Grammy-winning Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra and its music director, legendary trumpeter, Wynton Marsalis.
And as music critics often emphasize Yola's Polish roots and vibes place her in a long line of female performers whose exotic delivery adds appeal to her music. Yola’s new highly anticipated album, “Touched By Love”, it's an intimate acoustic jazz meditation on love with European Folk, Pop and Latin flavors. And it's up for a Grammy this year in two Jazz Vocal categories. Best Jazz Vocal Album and Album Of The Year. All songs on the album written by Yola (except one) and acclaimed composers Dr. Octavio Vazquez and Dr. Graham Keir.
The lone song on “Touched By Love” not penned by Yola is “Dance With Me,” a cabaret-like track that she describes as “musical exploration.” It sets a beautiful theatric poem by award-winning Poet, Writer, Poetry Film Director Fella Cederbaum to music written by the author. The Poet Fella is also featured at the end of that track (Spoken Word).
This excellent collection of Yola's original, poetic songs and musical ideas married perfectly with the brilliant, artistic vocabulary of her band allowed the magic to happen and took her project to a unique dimension. Her songs derive from the depths of her personal experience. She collaborates with extraordinary musicians, artists and engineers including: award winning composer, poet Fella Cederbaum, Edsel Gomez, the Grammy winning, pianist, composer, arranger (former music director of jazz legend, Dee Dee Bridgewater), who came on board as Music Director to help produce Yola’s dream album; Grammy winning percussionist Luisito Quintero (also a member of legendary Chick Corea's band), Grammy nominated accordionist Alex Meixner, award winning jazz guitarist Dr. Graham Keir, accomplished bassist Dave Baron (known for his collaborations with Herbie Hancock).
Yola also brought a couple of master recording engineers to help shape her signature sound like Tom Tedesco, known for his works with the biggest jazz stars in the world, including: Joe Lovano, Ravi Coltrane, Randy Brecker as well as Grammy winning Fran Cathcart.
Aside from the music, you'll want to read Yola's inspiring and truly uplifting personal story, a story of triumph over adversity that shows the power of Yola's positive spirit. The spirit that bravely lead her from communist Poland and extreme adversities to freedom, to NYC, to her own show at WABC and to Grammy Awards.
