Deborah Latz received a four-star DownBeat review for her fourth jazz vocal release, sur l’instant, an album that demonstrates her deeply felt affinity for swing and the elemental three B’s of jazz: Blues, Bebop and Ballads. Deborah is a vocalist, composer, sound artist, actor, and artist. Her third CD, Fig Tree, a new take on both the Great American Songbook and contemporary jazz, was released in May 2013. “From the acid jazz interpretation of ‘Blue Skies,’ to the dead-on rendition of ‘S’Wonderful,’ to the delightful, funky rhythms of her original ‘Fig Tree’, Deborah Latz demonstrates an outstanding range of technique and creative musicality,” writes renowned music critic Scott Yanow. She has toured nationally and internationally, collaborating with celebrated jazz pianists Alain Jean-Marie in Paris, France and Liang Heping in Beijing, China. The 2018 release of Counterpoise with Pat Wictor brings together a neo-folk, jazz fusion vocal duo that showcases tight harmonies and playful improvisation. Their first CD release captures the energy and interplay of a live performance. For more information visit Deborah's website: www.deborahlatz.com
