Each note on this album of 14 jazz standards is wrought with emotion, yet Sarah's delivery seems effortless. In many ways, it’s like listening to the waves as they come crashing on shore—there’s a certain expectation of what’s to come, but the real fun is found in the unpredictability. Many of the songs showcased here, such as “Come Rain or Come Shine,” “Just One of Those Things,” and “This Can’t Be Love,” are given new melodies, rhythms, and cadences—and the results are utterly delightful.

Sarah reimagines a collection of songs by the famed folk artist, Janis Ian, whose hits “At Seventeen” and “Society’s Child” have resonated with listeners for many decades. While respecting Ian’s moldies and lyrics, Partridge saw evidence of jazz roots in much of her writing and, along with arranger Allen Farnham, created inspired paths to presenting the songs in a jazz environment. The album contains thirteen selections both old and new, popular and unheard, dating from the late 1960’s to the present, including two new originals co-written by Partridge and Ian – “Somebody’s Child,” and “A Quarter Past Heartache,” which features them both on vocals.

These three singles are currently only available on Sarah Partridge’s flash drive! These are her takes on “Sonho Meu,” “Stolen Moments,” and “When the Lights Are Low.” Each is filled with her silken vocals overlaid on some extraordinarily soothing bass.

Everybody loves a good bonus, so why not get two? “Never Let Me Go” and “Wasted Days and Wasted Nights” can only be found in this collection! Sarah was featured in this film as …..a jazz singer!

With pianist Ted Brancato, Partridge interprets these tender songs written by her friends and colleagues, Ben and Susan Williams. She hopes to record more of their material in the future.

Here is a delightful trio of songs that are currently offered only in this collection! These singles are part of an album in the making during the pandemic. Sarah and bassist Bill Moring have been recording their parts separated in their home studios. There will be a total of 10 singles…one released each month until the album is completed. Here are the first 3! “Better Times Will Come” was written this year by Janis Ian in response to the pandemic. She invited her musician friends to create their own versions of this song. Sarah answered the call. “I’m Glad There Is You” and “Key Largo” are bonus tracks from the album “I Never Thought I’d Be Here”. They have never been released.
