Patricia Barber:

Clique

Patricia Barber, the performer known for boldly blurring the lines between poetry, jazz, and art song, has announced the forthcoming release of a new all-standards album Clique (Impex Records), due out August 6th in breathtaking hi-fi. The long-awaited successor to Nightclub, her critically acclaimed and fan-favorite first all-standards album, Clique features a tracklist of tunes that Barber has frequently performed as encores throughout her illustrious career, including classics by Rodgers & Hammerstein, Stevie Wonder, Lee Hazlewood, Lerner & Loewe, Thelonious Monk and more. After growing an international cult following, earning the first-ever Guggenheim Fellowship awarded to a non-classical songwriter, and becoming an elected member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, Patricia Barber is back with a "silk, velvet, languid, warm" journey through music history as she "respects traditions, bends them to make her own points, and freshens them into something new," as noted in the album liner notes by NPR's Susan Stamberg.

Mythologies

With words, and piano, Patricia Barber brings us her ninth CD: Mythologies, an intelligent album based on: The Metamorphoses of Ovid, the centuries-old classic of Western literature, filled with gods, mortals and apparently, humor. Barber's songwriting has been attracting big attention lately, and for the last two years, she has been recording this eleven song cycle. It was a project that demanded focus and some self-education
