Blessed with a captivating, richly sonorous singing voice, Japan-born, Seattle-based Valerie Joyce recorded two albums for audiophile label Chesky Records in the 2000s. The first of them, 2005’s critically acclaimed New York Blue, featured the young singer supported by a crack Big Apple jazz band: formidable pianist Andy Ezrin, alternating bassists John Hebert and Tim Lefebvre, and drum stalwart Gene Jackson. They are augmented on some tracks by the veteran session musician Lawrence Feldman’s smoky saxophone. Joyce’s intriguing repertoire blends deft interpretations of well-known evergreens from The Great American Songbook (‘Darn That Dream’) with jazz standards (Miles Davis’ ‘Blue In Green’), jazz-tinged R&B (‘Fever’), rock (Jimi Hendrix’s ‘Little Wing’), and pop (The Beatles’ ‘Golden Slumbers’). Bolstered with new liner notes featuring a recent interview with Valerie Joyce, New York Blue is reissued in 2026 as part of the Chesky Original Masters series on 180g One Step Pressing Vinyl LP and SACD Hybrid Stereo.

Against the tide of hip-hop, electronic dance music, and indie-rock, which dominated the airwaves of the late ‘90s, Dave’s True Story, a Big Apple duo comprised of singer Vicky Flint and guitarist and songwriter David Cantor, flew the flag for a cool alternative: jazz-inflected hipster pop. Cantor’s songs on Sex Without Bodies, the group’s Chesky Records debut, are witty, cinematic, erudite, cultured, and peppered with literary references. Highlights include the finger-clicking title track - ...
