Album Review: If It Ain’t Love by Patrice Jegou (8/10)

Former pro figure skater and classical opera singer Patrice Jegou finds liberation and fresh creativity interpreting jazz standards, strolling, darting, weaving and soaring through a wild expanse of styles and moods on this collection. The Canadian has an ability to ease from moments of playful, soaring vocal transcendence and swinging arrangements to intimacy so hushed it breaks your heart. Drawing on influences as far flung as Allen Toussaint, The Crusaders, Bill Evans and Randy Newman, she artfully weaves a beautiful through-line reflective of her vibrant and eclectic personality.
