Album Notes

"Call it kitten in the keys -- the major and minor keys, that is. The nicely jazzed keys. Standards of the recent century refreshed for this one, with the Bill Mays Trio doing a lot of the freshening." - (Richard Gehr - Village Voice)

"Almost all the familiar songs delivered here by the talented Dupuis have been outfitted with unusual arrangements. "Lets Face The Music" is a killer; so's "Sequined Mermaid Dress." Mays, Burr and Clarke are wonders." - (Zan Stewart, DownBeat, Aug. '99)

"Dupuis can navigate twists of tempo and volume with ease. If Janis Siegel or Cheryl Bentine ever left the Manhattan Transfer, she'd make a perfect replacement." - Jerome Wilson, Cadence, Mar. 2000

"This very expressive singer has everything going for her: varied approach to familiar material, top notch arrangements and an outstanding trio. A new voice worth hearing." - (Ken Dryden, Chattanooga Free Press)

"Original and risk-taking, a quirky, playful, sensitive vocalist who combines the influence of Annie Ross and Sheila Jordan, Dupuis manages to put her own spin on all-too-familiar standards." - (Alex Henderson, All Music Guide)
