Quiet Nights

Overview

Diana Krall's twelfth album is titled Quiet Nights. Using Brazil as a musical point of reference, the award-winning pianist and singer is not suggesting a night out; she means to stay in.

"It's not coy. It's not 'peel me a grape,' little girl stuff. I feel this album's very womanly -- like you're lying next to your lover in bed whispering this in his ear."

She's not kidding. From Krall's refreshing version of "Where or When" to an utterly soul-stilling rendition of "You're My Thrill," the ten songs on Quiet Nights are disarming in their intimacy. Even those already familiar with the breathy vocals and rhythmic lilt in Krall's music -- and now there are millions -- will be taken aback by just how far the music pushes, unabashedly, into the realm of sweet surrender.

"It's a sensual, downright erotic record and it's intended to be that way." From the Label
