Vocalist and composer Jacqui Naylor returns with her celebrated twelfth album, Treasures of the Heart, featuring her deeply rich, soulful voice on a signature mix of standards, covers, and original music. Known for her ability to interpret a diverse repertoire, Naylor attributes her unique sound to tight and spontaneous interplay with long-time bandmates. They include pianist, arranger and co-writer Art Khu, bassist Richie Goods, and drummer Josh Jones. What Naylor and her band create on stage together is both sensitive and explosive!
Naylor performs two different shows each night of her residency, featuring music from Treasures of the Heart and her illustrious career. Naylor's albums have made exclusive "top-ten" lists and her music featured in ad campaigns, television shows, and films, including a documentary made about her. She also gained notoriety for arrangements of jazz standards sung over grooves of well-known rock tunes and vice versa.
Highlights from Treasures of the Heart include an Afro-Cuban inspired take on the Rodgers and Hart classic "I Didn't Know What Time It Was," a sensitive interpretation of Burt Bacharach and Hal David's iconic "This Guy's in Love with You," and the uplifting and funky Naylor and Khu original title track "Treasures of the Heart."
