Rebecca Angel Appearing At The River Spirit Music & Arts Festival Next Saturday
New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Rebecca Angel will appear at THE RIVER SPIRIT MUSIC & ARTS FESTIVAL next Saturday, September 8th. The show will take place at Grove Stage from 3:45-4:15pm.
The 22 year-old vocalist has an appealing and captivating voice. Using jazz as her base to explore different grooves, she collaborated with Grammy-winning Jason Miles, who produced recordings of celebrity artists including Miles Davis, Grover Washington Jr., Luther Vandross, etc. Jason is producer and arranger of "What We Had", her debut EP, Miles and other top-notch musicians accompany her with a variety of backgrounds that showcase her soothing and distinctive voice at its very best.

In addition to Miles' keyboards, the six selections (plus two remixed performances) utilize such fine musicians as soprano-saxophonist Hailey Niswanger, guitarists Ricardo Silveira, Jonah Miles Prendergast and Christian Ver Halen, bassists James Genus, Reggie Washington and Adam Dorn, drummer Brian Dunne, percussionists Mino Cinelu and Cyro Baptista, cellist Sebastian Stoger, flugelhornist Dennis Angel and flutist Gottfred Stoger. Rebecca excels at singing heartfelt lyrics and showcases her innovative scatting.

Rebecca's version of the rarely performed Hoagy Carmichael gem "Winter Moon" features interplay between the singer and Niswanger on saxophone, catchy Latin rhythms and a haunting melody.

Rebecca co-wrote the minor-toned and nostalgic "What We Had" with her father Dennis Angel and guitarist Prendergast, a celebratory look at the past.
The Brazilian vocalese "Agora Sim" puts the focus on her instrumental ability in unison with Jonah's guitar.
"Feel Alive", which was also co-written by Rebecca, is a superior pop tune that is both funky and infectious.

Leiber and Stoller's "Stand By Me", heard in both radio and electro mixes, has a tight bass-drum rhythm, dynamic keyboards, a bluesy vocal by Rebecca and some natural and creative scat-singing.

The program closes with the first-ever vocal recording of Marcos Valle's 2005 instrumental hit "Jet Samba" which is given both a radio and an electronic Ipanema mix.

Rebecca Angel has loved music all of her life. She remembers her father introducing her to the recordings of Louis Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald, Peggy Lee, Elvis and the Beatles, Astrud Gilberto and Sade, all of whom became inspirations in her eclectic style. She graduated with a degree in Vocal Jazz Studies from Ithaca College and has performed at the Iridium, The Metropolitan Room and CaféNoctambulo in New York.
Rebecca Angel creates consistently memorable musical statements throughout "What We Had", with her substantial talents, a very impressive debut.
