From the first notes that Sara Jones sings on her debut CD, "Daydream A Little," it is obvious that a bright new vocalist is already making her mark on the music world. Her voice is very appealing, inviting and youthful. She revitalizes “The Girl From Ipanema” in a version that owes little to Astrud Gilberto--she swings, and her rendition is full of joy. In fact, one can easily imagine and even hear her smiling through her music.
The same qualities are heard throughout "Daydream A Little," a mixture of jazz and Brazilian standards that also includes a few superior pop songs. Teamed with guitarist Romero Lubambo, bassist-producer Paul Langosch, and the members of Trio da Paz, Sara Jones' debut is memorable, musical and infectious.
Born in Thailand and raised on the Eastern shore of Maryland, she began performing music as a pianist. “My Mom, grandmother and great aunt played piano so there was always a piano in the house,” remembers Sara. “I caught the bug when I was five. Although I mostly played classical music, I also listened to a lot of my grandparents' records and tapes of big bands.” Sara did not start singing seriously until she was in high school, winning the lead in the musical Anything Goes where she enjoying performing Cole Porter's music.
