Season 6 Episode 7 Anais Reno

When vocalist ANAÏS RENO burst onto the scene in 2021 with her debut album, ‘Lovesome Thing: Anaïs Reno Sings Ellington & Strayhorn,’ I had the distinct pleasure of featuring this young and talented vocalist in Season 2-Episode 11. At the time, listeners were delighted - and surprised - to learn that she had recorded it a year earlier when she was just 16 years old.

There have been a number of significant changes in the life of this noteworthy singer four years after releasing her debut recording. No doubt, people will be making even more comments about Anaïs’ ability to interpret song lyrics with emotional depth, enhanced musical maturity, and style after discovering more about her latest release. She has, once again, tackled the Great American Songbook with her newest album, LADY OF THE LAVENDER MIST, the inspiration which began while taking a train ride and listening to the music of Duke Ellington.
