Newcastle-born Nicki Parrott had already made her mark in New York’s jazz scene when in 2006 she recorded an album with Italian-born pianist Rossano Sportiello for the Arbors label called People Will Say We’re In Love. It not only showed she was an exceptional bass player but more surprising was her singing, a lovely voice with an intimate and tender feeling for a ballad and penchant for melody. These attributes are accentuated on her latest album on the Japanese Venus label. The title track, Sakura Sakura, is a traditional folk song depicting spring, the season of the cherry blossom, Japan’s national flower. Hence the emphasis on songs with a touch of spring, the season of renewal, aimed at a Japanese population still reeling from the last year’s tsunami disaster. Lisa Parrott (baritone and soprano) joins her sister on the date and instead of the tenor of Harry Allen we have trumpeter Dominick Farinacci. Both have their moments but always a plus on some of Nicki’s albums is the piano playing of John Di Martino. The epitome of good taste, he is at home in any setting. Listen to the way his elegant and dreamy piano adds to Nicki’s vocal after she begins Some Other Spring by accompanying herself on bass or her wistful duet with him on Spring Can Really Hang You Up The Most. The acoustic guitar of Paul Meyers shines on another duet (Spring Is Here). I mentioned melody earlier - no matter what the rhythm this set is awash with it. One for music lovers. – Kevin Jones
