Basia is emerging with her strongest work yet, It's That Girl Again, an album that brings her trademark global pop/jazz sound into today. From the first track “If Not Now Then When”--the bouncing melody, soaring horns, and the feeling that you've landed in a small fiesta--it's as though she has never been away.
