Luba Mason's New Album "Krazy Love": A closer look
In her upcoming CD, Krazy Love, jazz vocalist Luba Mason executes a "cool, Brazilian mood" with an intimate acoustic sound. Enhanced by well-known Brazilian musician Renato Neto on piano & keyboards (also pianist for the legendary musician, Prince), Luba is joined by top-notch bassist Jimmy Haslip (Yellowjackets), percussionist Cassio Duarte, Sandro Albert on guitar and Marco Costa on drums, with guest performances by the world renowned Hubert Laws as well as her husband, Latin great Ruben Blades.
In addition to co-producing the album, Luba's blossoming writing talents are premiered in 8 original songs alongside two covers, creating a distinctive yet personal sound and style to this unique blend of melodies.
From the title track, "Krazy Love," which sets the tone for the CD to Luba's childhood memories of growing up in her parent's home on "This House"; from the flirtatious vibes of romance on the duet (with Ruben) "And It Is with You I Go" to the feelings of betrayal on the songs "From Me To You" and "A Summer Night"; from the fantasies expressed on "Lovely" to the celebratory mode of "Christmas In July," Luba's CD is a personal and heartfelt exploration of love in all its various stages.
