The new CD from Torch, Before the Night is Over, solidifies this group's creative muscle. The originals are songs you'll swear are standards that you just can't name, but with subtle pop sensibility and phrasing. Songs about whiskey, God and everything in between are seamlessly nestled amongst dramatic, lovelorn standards like 'Get Out of Town' and 'I Fall in Love Too Easily'. Originals like the vocalese 'High Maintenance' and the let's-stay-up-all-night 'Nowhere Else To Be' are steeped in bop, with loose, playful melodies that get stuck in your head. And then there's that voice. Described as '...jaw-dropping, ...' (Terry Sawyer, PoPMatters) Seela lays down a powerful purr to lull you into inebriation on 'Sweet Honey Tree,' and surrenders a child-like plea for a second chance on the title track, 'Before the Night is Over.' Facts: Before the Night is Over is the second release from Torch. Like their first, Before the Night is Over was also recorded and produced by Brian Beattie at his home studio. The recording was done live to two-track in an all wood room with no partitions between the musicians. Unlike the first recording, Before the Night is Over contains original material mixed in with standards. The originals were written by Chris Vestre (guitarist) and Seela. Musicians Seela : vocals Chris Vestre : guitars Jon Greene : drums with Chris Maresh : bass Ephraim Owens : trumpet Will Swindler : sax.
