Robin Phillips - Old Street, New Groove (2010) 320kbps

This album is the result of the many varied experiences I have had in my professional life over the past five years as a jazz singer, pianist, and band-leader. The last four of these years have been spent living and working as a full-time performer in central London. The arrangements, feelings, and grooves reflect my experiences both on and off stage living in London: one of the most vibrant and eclectic cities in the world.

I must first and foremost thank all the musicians who collaborated with me on this album; especially Claire and Vilem who continue to be a huge support to my career. The marvellous guest musicians who performed on this CD really helped to take the album to a new level and I am eternally grateful for their involvement. This album is dedicated to everyone mourning the loss of Esbjörn Svensson (Esbjörn Svensson Trio / EST); may we continue to celebrate his life and music.
