With the release of a new CD ‘Perennial Favorites’, Alison Odell and Julian Smedley offer innovative arrangements of some of their favorite songs from Swing Era composers and contemporary songwriters. Their intimate performances marry Alison’s fluid vocals and solid rhythm guitar with Julian’s violin, guitar, and vocals.

Alison sings “to spark memories for fans of the great standards and to introduce newcomers to these classics.” Her natural vocal delivery and unaffected respect for the lyric and melody take the listener to the heart of the song. Julian rounds out their innovative arrangements with exquisite vocal harmonies and inspired solos.
