  • Description

    "Fresh...exotic...and far beyond the ordinary" (The New York Times) is one of the numerous praises the world press bestowed upon vocalist Allegra Levy since her debut album 'Lonely City' (SCCD33118) released in 2014.

    While Levy's second album 'Cities Between Us' (SCCD 31827) cemented her strong talent as a singer/songwriter, here on this her third album, Allegra the singer steps up to the front interpreting time-tested as well as newer moon-themed songs.

    "Levy is a gifted lyricist and she writes often light thoughts and observations but from a personal point of view. Vocal fans should seek this out as Levy fills a spot that is fresh and rewarding in the pantheon of vocalists. A carefully produced CD full of rewards." - Robert D. Rusch, Papatamas (on 'Cities Between Us')

    "Levy is a fresh new voice, with songs steeped in the tradition and primed to join the canon." - Jim Motavalli, New York City Jazz Record (on 'Cities Between Us')

    Personnel: Allegra Levy (vocal), Carmen Staaf (piano), Alex Goodman (guitar), Tim Norton (bass)
