Sunny Ozell Overnight Lows
'Overnight Lows' gleams with engaging melodies and intelligent word plays, performed with a sophisticated fluency in pop, jazz, soul and Americana dialects that makes it a delight to behold. Players on the record include Jay Bellerose (Robert Plant, Alison Krauss), Tyler Chester (George Ezra), Andy Hess (The Black Crowes, David Byrne) and Rich Hinman(Sara Bareilles). The album was recorded at Village Studios in Los Angeles. Sunny and her husband Sir Patrick Stewart now divide their time between Brooklyn and Los Angeles, and it was on the West Coast that her new album came into being, sculpted from lyrical and musical sketches that she carried in her pocket during Overnight Lows' careful incubation. The album displays Sunny's love of language and an intimate, soulful delivery,f rom the cruising feel of 'Driving Highways'at one end'with its clever incorporation of a key line from Dobie Gray's 1970s soulful singalong 'Drift Away'' to the bluesy, smoochy'Take You Down'at the other. 'Almost like self-analysis,' she adds, 'I went back through it and thought'Holy sh*t, there's a lot about night in here, and not sleeping, and wrestling with memories.'
