Album Notes

A blend of musical styles and performance experience has given Lenore Troia a unique place in the entertainment world. Expressing her self with smooth vocals and keyboard versatility, Howard Thompson of the New York Times called her "a mini jewel of an entertainer."

In the Florida Keys Lenore has made a home and a name for herself with her clever and unique brand of island music. The Miami Herald describes her as "Dynamic...with confidence and skill...entertaining people from all over the globe" and the Key West Citizen says Lenore "throws a hell of a party."

People have called her a 'female Jimmy Buffett' and some feel she is a voice for folks who travel from cold and harsh northern winters to the welcoming tropical warmth.

Wild Island Night Key West is a collection of Lenore's fun tropical theme songwriting at it's best. In "Everyone Has House Guest in Key West" she warns about how many of your long lost friends will be knocking at you door after you make the move to the Keys, or anyplace where the weather is warm! "Run for the Sun" will get you to do just that, and her socca medley of "Jump In the Line and Hot-Hot-Hot" will have you doing a conga line in your own living room! "Prayer To the Sea" is a beautiful love song that captures a once in a life time moment people in love might have in a special place. "The Woman Is Smarter" is a classic Harry Bellefonte tune and Lenore agrees that he was a very smart man to write it! "Lhasa Love" is for the animal lovers out there who miss their pets when they go away on vacation. In "They'll be Back" she sings about friends who visit and the try to leave but just can't. They'll be back and so will you to get all of Lenore's CDs after you hear Wild Island Night Key West!

"Dynamic...with confidence and skill...entertaining people from all over the globe with island-y blend of Caribbean and rock music and witty patter....."
June Keith MIAMI HERALD Miami, FL
"A musical powerhouse, Troia plays smoking keyboards, and has the art of writing a pop song down to a science."
Christine Naughton SOLARES HILL Key West, FL
"Throws a hell of a party."
KEY WEST CITIZEN Key West, FL
"I've never heard Lenore sound better, and that's saying volumes. Lenore Troia is probably one of the best singles you may ever hear."
Valerie Ridenour KEY WEST THE NEWSPAPER Key West, FL
"Troia's versatility as a pianist and lyricist is truly a key to her success, but the singer-songwriter who earns her living by touring piano bars is misplaced; her home is the concert stage. Troia not only is an accomplished pianist and singer, she has a strong stage presence and obviously can adapt her repertoire to any performing environment."
Shirley Barnes PROGRESS Charlottesville, VA
"Lenore has been writing songs and singing in Key West since the 90's. She sings of sunsets, of love, and of leaving it all behind to come to our island."
