She's gone and done it again. First, Grace Knight took the Eurogliders pop band to chart topping success throughout the 80s, then she became Australia's number one selling Jazz Diva in the 90s, and now... for something completely different...!!
Working with Tom Misner and Jochen Muller from Mirage 301, Grace has just completed her latest album. Titled "Zeitgeist" this new album is a blend of textures, genres and styles, taking the listener on an exciting journey through sexy grooves, tribal rhythms, and amazing harmonies.
With little effort, Grace has earned a reputation as an emotive and sensual singer. This quality is captured live - and can be heard on her double album 'Live' recorded over three dazzling performances at Sydney's premier Jazz venue The Basement. The album features a combination of favourites from the preceding three albums, with special guests including Australia's best international country star James Blundell, jazz virtuosos: James Morrison and Don Burrows, and Bernie Lynch, Grace's singing partner from the Eurogliders days.
Always ready for change, Grace has been collaborating with musicians across a broad spectrum of styles, writing the songs for this amazing lady's new musical incarnation. Rooted in jazz and soul, Grace has crafted a beautifully sensual and moody collection of songs that form the basis of a totally revamped live show. With only a few shows under her belt, audiences are already responding ecstatically to the new material and her new musical line-up.
