Our Take

Karen Souza's latest offering, "Velvet Vault," is like a soothing sip of mulled wine on a brisk winter's night. The Argentine jazz singer effortlessly glides through a selection of jazz standards and modern hits, giving each track her own sultry twist.

Opening with a jazzy reimagining of Adele's "Chasing Pavements," Souza sets the tone for the album with her velvet vocals and sophisticated delivery. She effortlessly transitions from the soulful ballad to the swinging "Do You Really Want to Hurt Me," turning the 80s pop hit into a torch song for the ages.

The album's standout track is undoubtedly Souza's cover of Radiohead's "Creep." With smoky vocals and a jazz-infused arrangement, she transforms the angst-ridden anthem into a seductive plea for love and acceptance. It's a bold choice that pays off in spades, showcasing Souza's unique ability to make familiar songs her own.

Throughout "Velvet Vault," Souza is backed by a stellar band that expertly navigates the nuances of each genre she tackles. From the bossa nova rhythms of "Personal Jesus" to the Latin-infused "Every Breath You Take," the musicians provide the perfect backdrop for Souza's enchanting vocals.

In a music landscape dominated by cookie-cutter pop stars and manufactured hits, Karen Souza stands out as a true artist with a gift for reinventing the classics. "Velvet Vault" is a must-listen for jazz enthusiasts and music lovers alike, offering a fresh take on familiar songs that will leave listeners craving more.
