ABOUT TINA MARSH / INSIDE THE BREAKING “Marsh’s vocals incorporate elements of some of the pioneers of radical vocal artistry, but without giving up structure or swing. (This) is even more pronounced in this small group setting, where she clearly regales as a Jazz singer… When she sings a tried and true standard… it is with the innocence of someone singing it for the first time.” CADENCE Magazine "Marsh steps away from big sound and big band and shares with us one of the most intimate and accessible and engaging albums of her career. .... Yet for all the stylish and understated colors of the arrangements, ‘Inside the Breaking’ blazes with artistry… Marsh is very exacting in her intent, oh so precise in imbuing each word with its own story … Classic songs and a very skillful singer.” AUSTIN AMERICAN-STATESMAN "Marsh's interpretive powers make this set shine… she is a haunting presence on the standards, sings the arias with drama, and brings chilly passion to Ornette Coleman's 'Lonely Woman' and warmth to Leonard Cohen's 'Anthem.' (Marsh) proves again what a great vocal artist she is." CADENCE Magazine “’Inside the Breaking’ smolders like a solo debut, intimate and unafraid… (Marsh) gets right up in a song’s face, never backing down nor blinking… Unbreakable.” THE AUSTIN CHRONICLE “Tina Marsh supplies brilliant bebop/scat/post-Berio vocalese.” WIRE Magazine ABOUT THE CREATIVE OPPORTUNITY ORCHESTRA “Too few people know that the CO2 is a killer band ... great, wise recordings stomping into disparate passions, touching on Ellington, Sun Ra, Stravinsky in tandem with CO2’s sweeping Big Band sound.” THE SEATTLE WEEKLY “This uncompromising ensemble features Marsh's vocals and she evidently can sing just about anything she can think of. Over the course of 2 sets and dead-on intonation, she recited texts, added wordless vocal lines to the mix, whispered, murmured, and at times seemed to be receiving alien transmissions. It's risky, out-on-a-limb vocalizing ... but there's something innately appealing about her approach ... The charts are creative and stimulating, and with the band at the end of their brief tour, they were at a real peak of dynamic interplay. Definitely a group deserving of much wider recognition." CADENCE Magazine “Hearing well-played, large-ensemble jazz is a rare enough experience in modern times, but the CO2 is more than just another big-band jazz outfit. The CO2’s strength, and ultimately its significance as a musical unit, is its original material. The depth and diversity of the experiences and interests of its members means CO2’s repertoire is as wide-ranging as jazz itself ... the group’s music is supersaturated with surprising successes. Almost every aspect of jazz surfaces at some point, frequently in creative recombinations, keeping the music fresh and unpredictable.” AUSTIN AMERICAN-STATESMAN HIGH RESOLUTION IMAGES
