“Soulful” [DownBeat Magazine]
“One to watch, a shining light,” [Philadelphia Inquirer]
“One of the region’s greatest jazz singers […] with his silken baritone and elegant charm.” [Metro Philadelphia]
These are just a few of the accolades bestowed upon Philadelphia jazz singer, V. Shayne Frederick. Those within Philadelphia’s jazz scene, where he has played many residencies, and audiences at TEDx, NPR, and the Philadelphia Orchestra, know these accolades are well-deserved. Now jazz lovers everywhere can find out for themselves with his latest release Treasures.
“These are a few of my favorite things. A new album. A collection of treasures. Cultivating this project was like appeasing a mercurial lover or walking a bridge despite having a fear of heights. Now it’s time to give the offering.”- V. Shayne Frederick on Treasures
Frederick is also the executive producer of the album. Contributors include co-producers Dariel Peniazek, Hiruy Tirfe, and Tim Brey.
