SPINCOUNT ARTIST OF THE WEEK: TERESA DOYLE
The Late Night Parlour is a mix of Teresa Doyle’s own songwriting and tunes from the swing and Latin era. The title track takes you to the tropical sensuality of Tobago and a mountainside rum shack called The Late Night Parlour. Inspired by performing with Soca musicians at the rum shack, Teresa began writing songs from the languor of her beach chair. Her songwriting is sassy, sexy, danceable and fun. The Late Night Parlour is co-produced by Teresa and David Rashed.
Doyle’s ten recordings on her label Bedlam Records have met with critical acclaim at home in the Maritimes, across North America, Europe and Japan. This body of work has garnered numerous awards including two ECMAs, two JUNO nominations and the 2007 Victor Martyn Lynch-Staunton award for music.
“The Late Night Parlour is a delightful collection of jazz originals and standards, sung with spunk and finesse. With her gorgeous voice, impeccable pitch and phrasing, Teresa takes supreme ownership of whatever she sings. Music from the core of one of Canada’s finest, most versatile vocalists.”
— Anne Lindsay, 2007 National Jazz Award winner and violinist with Blue Rodeo
