This duo (formerly known as “Tom & Joyce”) are cousins from France who seem to have left their hearts in Rio. Polished, sophisticated bossa nova and sexy jazz/funk grooves w/great guitar work (Tom) and smooth female vocals (Joy). It’s lush, well-arranged music, backed by a very capable band. Music for grown-ups. *1. Lazy, sexy bossa classic in French/English. Delicious. 2. Bright mid/upbeat groove w/some nice guitar work. 3. Brass leads into a catchy jazz/funk sound. *4. Playfully sweet, low-key love song. Great harmonica accent. 5. Midtempo modern funk jazz w/cool urban feel. 6. Strings and vocals predominate this sleepy musing. *7. Starts muted, gets into a relaxed late night combo feel. So cool. 8. Uptempo tropicale groove. Nicely catchy. *9. Good use of horns. Midtempo, nice work from all concerned. 10. Downtempo w/sexy vocals & cool horn break. 11. Soft & gentle vocals, guitar. Good small club jazz. *12. Upbeat dance groove for vox/horns. Big & busy. 13. Quiet, slow and sad. | ||
