Italian Jazz Indie Artist Sylvia Bennett featuring CD “Smile” is a reflection of passion for legendary American standards, and the desire to keep them alive with a contemporary flare. Sylvia has been compared to Barbra Streisand, Rosemary Clooney, Astrid Gilberto, Diana Krall, Ella Fitzgerald. What a compliment that happens to be true. Sylvia’s love and vocals for jazz, easy listening, and contemporary set a tone and scene which captures moments in time.

Grammy nominated Sylvia Bennett, the timeless smooth jazz and pop vocalist sings of love with a warmth, clarity and spirit that is enveloping and tender, showcasing the depth of her skill, talent and experience. She's sung with Lionel Hampton and she's sung for presidents - all with a singular style and intimacy that is hers and hers alone.

Smile is a collection of wonderful standards, recognizable, but all with an international flair to appeal to a broader audience. The flavors are bossa novas, boleros and a new hybrid merengue. Inspiration came from a history of enjoying the styles of Sergio Mendez and Wes Montgomery. The music is grooving with luscious percussion and masterful guitar.

So, sit back relax have a cup of coffee, tea, or a glass of wine enjoy some good conversation with “Sylvia Bennett” and music…
