Zara McFarlane at Pori Jazz Festival
Zara McFarlane just might be one of the new jazz sensations of 2014. At least all signs point to this. Her second album 'If You Knew Her' was released in January and it presents a singer who has truly discovered her own voice. The album was released by Brownswood Recordings, run by the famed British DJ/tastemaker Gilles Peterson. The minimalist compositions and McFarlane's strong voice come together in a stunning way, making the release one of the early highlights of the new musical year. (62 min)
