Long time friends and respected musicians Lori Cullen, Kurt Swinghammer and Ron Sexsmith come together and collaborate on a new recording - Sexsmith Swinghammer songs. Ron, who has been a huge fan of Lori s for years, suggested to Kurt that they co-write an album of material specifically for Lori to sing. The inspired results are sure to draw attention, as always, to her remarkable voice.

Identified by jazz giant Kurt Elling as one of his favourite new vocalists, Lori Cullen s upcoming album on True North Records is a fresh expression of jazz-infused chamber-pop. With her pure, unaffected style she delivers twelve tunes that evoke the rich creativity of 60 s/70 s composers Bacharach, Webb and Jobim. Supporting the combination of Sexsmith s renowned lyrical approach and Swinghammer s unique musical sensibilities, the tracks feature contributions from a dozen of Toronto s finest musicians
