Cris Tanzi and her new Jazz Vibe:
Cris Tanzi got into singing jazz when guitar virtuoso Carl Orr heard her once and said she’d sound great singing standards. She gave it a try and hasn’t looked back since. She’s now gaining credit as an accomplished performer in the genre.
Listen closely for a hint of bittersweet melancholy a touch of hidden longing in the fragile folk pop of Italian singer-songwriter Cris Tanzi. Swapping her Mediterranean home for a London-based Music School (UK) a good ten years ago, Tanzi soon bumped into her future partner Alex Scaturro. A lasting, fruitful collaboration and relationship that culminated in the couple's loudest laptop/guitar project Trigger Baby. Cris Tanzi’s solo career, on the other hand, is relatively recent development: In 2005,the gifted singer finally plucked up the courage to take her voice and guitar to London's stages, where her moving songs soon gained her favourable comparison to pop's leading ladies, from Bjork to Tori Amos. Cris Tanzi her self remains unimpressed,” What I play is the sound of my life-wherever I go, good or bad, my music will always be with me."
