Three strong women plus a pianist born on International Women’s Day take the stage for the long-awaited release tour of Fawn Fritzen’s “How to Say Sorry and Other Lessons“. This musical tour de force fuses this Yukon-based singer songwriter truth bombs with the harmonic richness of jazz.
Co-written with her life partner, JUNO-winning pianist and composer David Restivo, the album explores themes of failure and feminism while musically ranging through swing, funk, gospel, and even a touch of reggae.
Fawn and David are joined by fellow JUNO-nominated artists, bassist Lauren Falls and drummer Valérie Lacombe.
“Fawn Fritzen takes the jazz vocal to another level on this sophisticated and sensitive collection of compositions that are both poignant and introspective. Fawn’s vocal style is bold with a sense of innocence and she delivers each song with focused confidence. An album to be savored for its timeless quality.”
