"Her performance maintains a balance of swing and sensuality
…great vintage songs…I wasn't expecting to fall in love…"
-- Will Friedwald, New York Sun, and author of Tony Bennett's "The
Good Life" and Frank Sinatra's "Sinatra! The Singer Is You"
"Kathy Kosins is one of the finest singers in the world."
-- Don Was, Producer
"Kosins is a delightful surprise... reminiscent of Peggy Lee...
worthy of Dinah Washington" - Jazz Times
Kathy Kosins, whose gutsy alto is tinged with Motown soul, stands
out among today’s crowded field of vocalists. Indeed, Chicago
Tribune jazz critic Howard Reich went so far as to say that Kosins
possesses “one of the most alluring voices in jazz.”
In 2002, the Detroit native burst onto the national jazz scene with
Mood Swings. On her latest release, Vintage, Kosins rediscovers little
known songbook gems -- which she places alongside a few widely known,
yet unexpected tunes from outside the jazz tradition. She is supported
by a stellar cast of instrumental talents. Vintage is the second release
on Kevin Mahogany’s Mahogany Jazz label.
