Nikki

我渐渐迷上爵士女伶这类人群，很大程度上是因为我发现她们讲话的时候也象是在唱歌。如果说爵士女伶上辈子是一只鸟的话，我想Nikki Yanofsky一定是百灵鸟的化身。等下再告诉你Nikki Yanofsky有多大，有人曾用一句话形象的形容她在Montreal音乐节上的一举成名，“she captivated her audience like a veteran performer three times her age”。我不知道她的Over the Rainbow属于跟唱谁的版本，亦或是她自己的，总之这个版本是我听到过的曲调改动最大的，她唱的挥洒自如。顺便提一下，Nikki Yanofsky在今年加拿大温哥华冬奥会的闭幕式上也有参与演出。最后，史上最小的爵士发片女歌手，出生于1994年2月8日。
Sixteen-year-old Nikki Yanofsky is poised to break out as one of the year's most-exciting new artists with her self-titled CD Nikki. The press has hailed Yanofsky as a "young Ella Fitzgerald"--from jazz to originals, she is among the most unique vocalists in recent time. She has been captivating audiences from jazz festivals around the world and most recently appeared at the 2010 Winter Olympics. Her song "I Believe" has sold 4x platinum in Canada, garnering the highest first week of any Canadian artist in Soundscan history. Nikki is produced by 15-time Grammy®-winning producer Phil Ramone and Grammy® winning songwriter / producer Jesse Harris (best known for his work on Norah Jones' Come Away With Me). "For Another Day" is the focus track and will be worked at AAA radio in the coming months. PBS pledge show Live From Montreal will begin airing in all major markets in May 2010.
