The Canadian jazz singer delivers a masterful work with her new album. The award-winning singer-songwriter and pianist Laila Biali has toured with Chris Botti, Paula Cole, Suzanne Vega, and Sting. She has headlined festivals and venues on all five continents, including Carnegie Hall. She received a 2019 JUNO Award for "Vocal Jazz Album of the Year," "Composer of the Year" from SOCAN, and "Keyboardist of the Year" at the National Jazz Awards in Canada, a JUNO nomination for her studio recording Tracing Light, and a spot on DownBeat magazine's "Best Albums of the Year" list for her follow-up Live in Concert. Her latest project, a self-titled album released in January 2018, debuted at number one on iTunes Canada and earned Laila the first prize in jazz at the Canadian Songwriting Competition as well as a JUNO Award (Canadian GRAMMY). And while Laila continues to receive great honors in the jazz world, it is her unique sound that sets her apart, as she "masterfully blends jazz and pop, bringing virtuosity and unpredictability to concise, catchy songs." (Washington Post). She returns with a new album in the same vein as her previous work.
