Anita Eccleston
While Vancouver based trumpet player and vocalist Anita Eccleston has been dazzling jazz audiences for a long time, in recent years her chops have been honed as a music producer of lofi dream jazz.
Wielding her horn as her primary voice of expression, Anita builds ambient electronic beats overlaid with jazz chords, the palette on which she paints her instrumental polyphony. Vinyl horn lines trade off with haunting lofi electric ukuleles and pianos weave their refrains through synths and organs while she wraps the compositions with layers of velvety vocal pads.
Her latest release “Winter Gala” is a nostalgic reinvention of traditional winter-time songs. They are jigsaws pulled apart and remade with fragments of age-old melodies intertwined with counterpoint and memorable beats, all adorned with bells - like tinsel on the tree.
Anita’s lead single “Magi” is inspired by “We Three Kings”, “Magi” is a journey song about believing in a dream and following through to find it realized.
