Info for Nothing But Love

Mit diesem souligen und zeitlosen Song-Zyklus aus Welt- und Blues-gefärbtem Folk, Jazz und Pop-Eigenkompositionen, erreicht die Singer-Songwriterin Jana Herzen (die zufällig auch A&R-Kopf des mehrfach grammyausgezeichneten New Yorker Labels Motéma Music ist) neue Höhen als musikalische Geschichtenerzählerin, Komponistin und Gitarristin. Feat. u.a. Charnett Moffett am Fretless Bass.

"Eine bezaubernd gefühlvolle Kollektion, mit gewisser Nähe zu Joni Mitchell oder Paul Simon.​" (Jazz thing)

"Mit seinen unerwarteten Gegenüberstellungen von Isolation, Verlust und Melancholie, neben augenzwinkerndem Spaß, hoffnungsvollem "Umblättern" und dem Mut, die Sonne wieder einzulassen, bietet "Nothing But Love" ein komplexes Porträt einer Kraft, die, in den Worten von Herzen, "die Welt in Bewegung bringt". "Dieser aus zwölf Liedern bestehende Zyklus - eines davon habe ich bereits in den 1980er Jahren in einem NYC-Jazzclub auf eine Serviette geschrieben - hat schon lange den Wunsch, das Licht der Welt zu erblicken", erklärt sie. "Jedes Lied ist von einem bestimmten Moment, Ort oder einer Person in meinem Leben inspiriert. Zusammen erzählen sie eine Geschichte der Liebe in vielen Gestalten." (jazz-fun.de)
