With her most recent album release “Indigo,” talented vocalist/composer Cheryl Hodge shines on this fantastic jazz performance. Hodge’s gift of music is thoroughly enjoyed with her vocals that are polished and sophisticated. Take note of the strong and solid range her voice carries especially on the title track “Indigo.” Feel the expression and emotion pouring out as she delivers an amazing collection of songs. Listeners will notice the outstanding support from band members as they blend balance and texture while adding a cool swing feel with soft brushes on drums, sweet guitar riffs, or electric piano. Let the melodic sax riffs carry you away on “Guide to Recovery.” If you are looking to hear jazz with refreshing vocals, then you will definitely want to add Cheryl Hodge‘s “Indigo” to your collection.
