Kurt Elling and Charlie Hunter - SuperBlue: Guilty Pleasures (feat. Nate Smith) - Vinyl LP

GRAMMY award-winning jazz vocalist Kurt Elling builds towards his second, highly anticipated, SuperBlue album in Fall 2023 by releasing a 6-track EP 'Guilty Pleasures,' with guitarist Charlie Hunter and featuring special guest drummer Nate Smith - two musicians who are deservedly regarded as world leading players in their own right.

Bursting with his trademark charisma, energy and showmanship, ‘Guilty Pleasures’ is set to offer fans of Kurt’s debut SuperBlue album a guiltless treat with six high-octane covers (including Al Jarreau’s Boogie Down as you’ve never heard it before!). There’s an additional playfulness and looseness in these fresh recordings that is entirely compelling, but Kurt’s creative spark, intensity and flair for storytelling remains at the centre, leaving listeners wanting more and more. The great Chi-town singer and consummate entertainer continues to astonish with each and every recording.

The New York Times described Kurt as “the standout male jazz vocalist of our time”, a statement that appears more appropriate with every new release.
