Here is the lastest release from the group Clockwork!
From the liner notes:
This record is at once playful, soulful, and precise. There is traditional vocal jazz excellence. There are jaw-dropping solos. There is stunning vocalese. There is fine rhythm section backing. There is an eclectic selection of songs ranging from Rhode Island to Radiohead, with detours to Cat Stevens, Dave Frishberg, Barry Mann and Cynthia Weill, Dr Seuss, Ani DiFranco mashed up with Herbie Hancock, Charlie Parker, a gut wrenching Hurricane Katrina tale mashed up with the Beatles, some creepy/ironic Steely Dan, even a traditional folk ballad.

Clockwork: ... four diverse vocies, four individual personalities, four histories in vocal music. What I'm struck by is how completely they have managed to form a "group" identity with this record, a blend, a sound that is reminiscent of great vocal groups of the past, but in the end truly their own.
