After 28-year old Swedish-American songstress Mimi Terris spent a year in New York City, the collaboration with swing jazz pianist Gordon Webster and bass player Cassidy Holden has led to her long awaited debut album.
After growing up in a jazz-dedicated family in her childhood home of Tjörn, Sweden, further music studies led her to explore the full range of her soprano voice through 7 years of classical vocal studies in England and at the Royal Danish Music Conservatoire. During a year long break she left for the American music metropolis, searching to widen her musical range, and soon found herself immersed in early swing and vernacular jazz, performing in several of the venues dedicated to early jazz.
They say it’s spring is an enchanting showcase of Terris’ subtle, warm and expressive voice, in a closely connected trio setting, all recorded during a one day session in February 2012. The live session, including several first takes, took place at the old studio 3 in Radiohuset, the beautiful building that was the home of the The Danish Broadcasting Corporation from 1940-2007.
Featuring both rare and well-known jazz standards, intermingled with Swedish cabaret songs and contemporary works, Terris brings together a wide variety of musical flavors and eras, all held together gently but confidently, by her way of telling the individual stories.
Having studied the classical western repertoire for so many years, language interpretation and word-painting lies first and foremost in my mind when I am singing any song in any genre. Whether it’s jazz or French chansons is very secondary to me when I sing, as all songs ever written simply are stories that need to be told in harmony and rhythm.
This special collection of songs presents Webster, Holden and Terris’ own arrangements, in their own take of the old-fashioned jazz vinyl format, on They say it’s spring, due for release on CD and LP in March 2013.
