Lossless

This salute to Bill Evans, one of Elias' favorite piano players, explores a number of songs he recorded, including both standards and originals. Evans' bassist from his final trio, Marc Johnson, is not only a long-time collaborator with Elias but also her husband; drummer Joey Baron rounds out the band. While Elias is influenced by Evans' playing style, his arrangements are only a launching pad for her approach to each tune; never does she sound like an obvious Evans clone. She has also built confidence in her singing over time; always gifted with a tender, sensuous voice, Elias glides gently over Johnson's walking introduction to "A Sleepin' Bee" and offers an equally delicate "Walt for Debby." She wrote words to Evans' previously unknown "Here Is Something for You".

Beautiful Italian pop music from one of Italy's best-loved artists, Adriano Celentano. Includes a version of "Il Ragazzo Della Via Gluck" interpreted in duet with Cesaria Evora.

EIGHTFOURSEVEN'S second full-length album LOSSLESS fuses electronica with warm organic rock for a sound that's as ponderous as it is pacifying. Ever since their emergence in 2002, the Sacramento quartet have been following a local tradition of not only thinking outside the box, but musically rebuilding the box itself. The NorCal town has fostered a legacy of truly alternative music most notably Deftones and Far and EIGHTFOURSEVEN proudly continue that tradition blending dark electronic textures a la Portishead with an undeniable sense of melody reminiscent of The Smashing Pumpkins.
