• China Moses, the daughter of Dee Dee Bridgewater, is a singer, songwriter, author, producer and MTV host. Her late father was Gilbert Moses a committed television and film director responsible for series like ‘Roots’ and the cult film ‘Willy Dynamite’.

• She released three soul/R&B albums on the Virgin subsidiary, Source: ‘China’ (1997), ‘On Tourne en Rond’ (2000) and ‘Good Lovin’ (2004), followed by many collaborations.

• The French pianist Raphaël Lemonnier began his career in the 1980s with the Nîmes Big Band and Guy Labory’s Creole Jazz Band. His primary influences were Erroll Garner, Oscar Peterson, Earl Hines and Count Basie - and he developed a passion for boogie-woogie,. He became a professional musician in 1997, moved to New York to study piano with Jaki Byard and recorded his first album.

• He heard China when she was a backing singer for French songstress Camille. It led to them working together and developing the idea of a live Dinah Washington tribute show, ‘Gardenias For Dinah’ which toured very successfully in France in 2009. The album, ‘This One’s For Dinah’, on French Blue Note, was a natural follow-on.

• On it, China demonstrates that she is a remarkable singer and a fine interpreter of standards - performing Dinah’s material with great sensitivity, emotion and yet suitable restraint. She also adds two new originals to the album. There’s a 5-piece brass section plus a piano trio led by Lemonnier, whose arrangements are exceptional.

• She is due to appear in the UK in 2010, including concerts at The Barbican and Ronnie Scott’s.

Reviews
Jazz Journal - Mike Rogers
Ms Moses has got a high but gravely bluesy voice well suited to this material. Moses can certainly put over a song.
