Search - Antonia Bennett :: Embrace Me

We are proud to announce the release of Antonia Bennett's debut release, Embrace Me. With a gifted voice, Antonia Bennett has the ability to make a song her own. On this album she covers the likes of Porter, Gershwin, Hammerstein, Cahn, Kern and other greats from the American Songbook of standards. Like Peggy Lee, Billie Holiday, Rosemary Clooney and other legendary singers, Antonia phrases each lyric with involvement and depth of feeling. Like her father, Tony Bennett, she always chooses to sing the best material, working with the finest musicians. She's never content to stop learning her craft, developing her singing skills, while opening for her father, or in other venues at Radio City Music Hall, Caesar's Palace, or the Newport Jazz Festival. Years ago, Count Basie recorded a Neil Hefti tune called ""Softly With Feeling."" That's the quality inherent in every song in this collection. This is what her father says about Antonia: ""Antonia's got the gift. She has good time. She sings in tune. She has a good spontaneous feeling for phrasing. And that is something that you either got it or you haven't got it. There's no way that you can teach that to somebody. If you got it, you got it, and Antonia's got it.
