Patrice Williamson: Free to Dream

Read "Free to Dream" reviewed by Jack Bowers


You want to hear beautiful music? Go directly to Track 4 on Patrice Williamson’s latest album, Free to Dream, and listen to Rodgers and Hart’s “With a Song in My Heart” — irresistibly melodic and outspokenly tender, the way a love song should be written (and sung).

Patrice Williamson: Free To Dream

Read "Free To Dream" reviewed by Jerry D'Souza


Williamson continues to build on the promise she showed on her first album, My Shining Hour as her smoky alto makes its way through a song filling it with warmth and a smooth flowing jazz sensibility.

Patrice Williamson: My Shining Hour

Read "My Shining Hour" reviewed by Jack Bowers


When one’s ears, on a vocal album, are constantly drawn toward the pianist as the primary source of interest, the singer is clearly in some trouble. While I’ve nothing against Patrice Williamson, the nominal centerpiece of this session, I was more impressed by her main accompanist, pianist Helen Sung. Like many other aspiring young vocalists, Williamson ...
