Rene Marie's Experiment in Truth Quartet

About Rene Marie's Experiment in Truth Quartet

A feisty, knowing jazz singer with an affinity for Betty Carter, Ella Fitzgerald and Dinah Washington, René Marie made people sit up and listen when she emerged on the scene fully formed in the late 1990s. Although considered a late-bloomer of sorts (beginning her professional singing career at 42) she made critics take note of her with her recent Grammy nomination for Best Jazz Vocal Album. I Wanna Be Evil: With Love To Eartha Kitt, highlights Marie’s playful yet dusky vocal style as she channels the idiosyncratic Kitt with the perfect blend of reverence and adventurousness.
