Grammy winning Eddie Daniels to release new project, ‘Night Kisses,’ on Resonance Records.

*“I decided to do a Brazilian record with a string quartet,” said six-time Grammy nominated horn player Eddie Daniels about his August 7, 2020 release of his “Night Kisses: A Tribute to Evan Lins” (Resonance Records) project. “George Klabin, head of Resonance Records. was born in Brazil. I’ve known him for 40 years.”

The “Night Kisses: A Tribute to Evan Lins” album features 10-time Grammy winning Dave Grusin (piano) and Emmy winning Bob James (piano). Also accompanying Daniels on “Night Kisses” is Kevin Axt (bass), Mauricio Zottarelli (drums), Kuno Schmid (piano), and The Harlem Quartet (strings). Eddie, also a one-time Grammy winner, plays the sax, flute and the clarinet.

“Bob James and Dave are both famous writers in the Jazz field, they both know Ivan Lins,” said Eddie about his featured artists – Bob James, who is also a Grammy winner and Dave Grusin who is also an Academy Award winner.

When I asked him where the title of the project came from he said, “A couple of the tunes had ‘night’ in them. One song ‘The Night Singer’ is so romantic.”

Daniels says his new project, the 30th album, is all about “love and romance.”

The New York native was a prodigy child playing the clarinet and sax fluently by the age of 13. Through the years he has worked as a musician with various artists and appeared on the albums of Angelo Bofill (“Angie,” 1978) and George Benson (“G.B.,” 1981). He was also a featured musician on the Big Phat Band 2001 album.

My favorites tracks on the “Night Kisses” project includes #3 “Maos de Afeto (Hands of Affection),” for its sweet sound and deeply romantic feel; #5 “Velas Icadas (Hoister Sails),” for its nice Jazz sound, the way the flute flutters like a butterfly, the majestic piano playing, and the visuals it provokes of swirling winds on a lovely day; #7 “Cantor Da Noite (The Night Singer),” for its old classic Jazz sound, reminiscent of the Frank Sinatra and Harry Belfonte periods; #10 “Lembra (Remember),”  because of the way it picks-up at a certain point to become inspiring and also the swirling dance the flute and piano makes, and last I like #11 “Depois dos Temporais (After the Storms),” because this Navy girl loves the military drum roll in the background, a surprise, making the selection refreshing. www.ResonanceRecords.org
