He & Me by Ada Bird Wolfe

HE AND ME, the newest project by singer and lyricist ADA BIRD WOLFE, is a duo album featuring the esteemed pianist and arranger JAMIESON TROTTER performing jazz standards and original tunes.
Advance reviews have been outstanding: “Ada’s excellent work with jazz pianist Jamieson Trotter on this October, 2020 release is intimate and flawless through and through." (Contemporary Fusion Reviews.) “A real tour de force where the two talents give each other room to really shine and bring it all home in a velvet jewel box.  Top shelf.” (Midwest Records.)

HE AND ME follows Wolfe’s 2018 release, Birdie,named one of the top 10 albums of 2018 by C. Michael Bailey in All About Jazz. Dick Metcalf of Contemporary Fusion Reviews called Birdie "a superb jazz vocal adventure." And Dodie Miller-Gould of Lemonwire said: "Birdie is a joyous compilation of songs that shows off the singer’s vocal range and scope of moods." Wolfe has a rich, alto voice with a warm, intimate timbre. She eschews melisma and vocal gymnastics to tell her stories through inventive phrasing and subtle variations on melody. Trotter is a first-call accompanist for vocalists who are serious about their craft. He possesses an expansive musical vocabulary and the ability to listen closely and react with his own imaginative turns of phrase.HE AND ME provides a glimpse into the creative process of two musicians whose tastes and aesthetics are completely in synch. They build tunes organically by listening closely to one another and weaving tapestries of sound that create new and unexpected aural images.
