Gorgeous in every sense, singer/pianist Hilary Kole is ready to make her mark with this stunning debut album, produced by John Pizzarelli, a jazz superstar in his own right. Even though 'Haunted Heart' is Hilary Koles debut, shes already one of the best-known and most admired younger singers, thanks to her starring roles in the long-running Off-Broadway musicals, Our Sinatra and Singing Astaire (both of which she co-created), as well as her regular appearances major NYC jazz clubs and other venues across the country and world. Ms. Koles poised, sultry ballad-singing has always been easy on the ears. But her smooth melodic lines have never been so consistently infused with literary subtext, which spells the difference between sounding pretty and having something to say.
