JOE COUGHLIN BOWS 5TH CD ‘THINGS TURN OUT THAT WAY’

Joe Coughlin's new CD Things Turn Out That Way is a treasure chest of jazz delights with seven brand new songs that sound like standards and the same number of standards that sound brand new again. His latest collection is set for a March 2007 release and you can sample it now at http://www.JoeCoughlinJazz.com. Things Turn Out That Way features Tony George on piano, Ken Lister on bass, Buff Allen on drums, Pat Coleman on guitar, Bill Runge on sax and flute and Mike Herriott on trumpet and flugel horn. "An acute sensitivity to nuance and a viscerally emotional identification with each narrative, Joe knows how to tell a story," says Colin Lazzerini who co-wrote seven of the fourteen songs. "He knows how to write one too and I remain professionally envious of how effectively the words interpret the personal significance of Mike Herriott's Sweet Little Angel while lending its message a universal meaning." Twenty five years in the business have taken Joe around North America's finest clubs and on tour with legends like Dizzy Gillespie and Woody Herman. Joe remains a supreme standards singer with the ability to remind the audience that performing the classic jazz songs is a genuine art form. He uses the authority of his deep baritone with spine tingling precision and heart gripping timbre with power, desire and heartbreak.
