Cathy Segal-Garcia: Dreamsville

Three of LA’s best and most lyrical artists get together for a sublime session. Emotive toned Cathy Segal-Garcia teams with multi-guitarist Larry Koonse and melodic pianist Josh Nelson for a collection of sublime interpretations. Koonse switches between electric and nylon strings depending on the environment, going intimate on a duet with Segal-Garcia on a classy “You Are There.” Segal-Garcia is dreamy and impressionistic as Koonse and Nelson add Monet-like strokes to the title track, the delicate “The Three Of Us” and the Iberian “Canto Triste.” Ivories and strings chime around her on “September In The Rain” while she sings almost subconsciously during a rich “Scarlatti Sonata In B Minor.” Embers flutter throughout, particularly on a glowing “Pensativa.” Turn the lights out for this one.
