Lizz Wright - 'Dreaming Wide Awake'

On her 2003 debut, Salt, Lizz Wright was hailed by People Magazine as “one of the year's most promising new voices,” a “smoky, simmering” talent, according to USA Today. Wright's new albumDreaming WideAwake, set for June 14 release on Verve Forecast, finds that promise fulfilled.

Wright recorded ‘Dreaming’ at Allaire Studios in Woodstock, NY, with Craig Street (Cassandra Wilson, k.d. lang) producing, and a deep well of New York talent contributing: guitarist Bill Frisell, Grammy-winning songwriter Jesse Harris, Mark Anthony Thompson (aka Chocolate Genius), Ollabelle organist Glenn Patscha, and Toshi Reagon among others.
