On October 27, Blue Note Records will release a new Deluxe
Edition of Norah Jones’ acclaimed album Day Breaks. A 2-CD set and limited
edition 2-LP 180g silver foil-cover vinyl are available for pre-order today on
the Norah Jones Store. The Deluxe Edition will also be available at all digital
retailers and streaming services on October 27.
The expanded track listing includes the addition of nine
songs recorded live in New York City during Norah’s memorable album release
shows at the Sheen Center’s Loreto Theater in October 2016. The live cuts
include versions of songs from Day Breaks like “Flipside” and the Horace Silver
ballad “Peace,” as well as fan favorites like “Don’t Know Why” and “Sunrise,”
performed by Norah (voice, piano), Chris Thomas (bass), Brian Blade (drums),
Pete Remm (Hammond B-3 organ), and background vocalists Tarriona ‘Tank’ Ball
& Anjelika ‘Jelly’ Joseph of Tank and The Bangas (winners of NPR Music’s 2017
Tiny Desk Contest).
Norah has a series of intimate sold-out shows this month in
New York and London. The 9-time GRAMMY-winning singer, songwriter, and pianist
is performing songs from Day Breaks with Blade and Thomas this week at (le)
poisson rouge in New York City (September 10-14) before heading to London to
perform at Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club (September 25-26). Watch the trio perform
“Peace” live at the Sheen Center.
On October 28, Norah will make her fourth appearance on the
esteemed PBS program Austin City Limits. Day Breaks earned rave 4-star reviews
from Rolling Stone (“a marvelous consolidation, floating buoyantly between past
tradition and her own unique present”), MOJO (“her masterpiece to date…
inspired and breathtaking… Small-hours jazz perfection), and DownBeat (“both a
return to roots and a triumphant showcase of stylistic diversity”).
