Nicky Schrire – “Freedom Flight/Blackbird”

 

Today’s video is from vocalist Nicky Schrire, performing a medley of her own song “Freedom Flight” and the Beatles’ “Blackbird.”  This was part of a performance from Schrire’s album launch at NYC’s Cornelia Street Cafe back in June of 2012.

Schrire has got a new album coming out soon, titled Space and Time, and when I saw it arrive in the mail, it reminded me of how much I enjoyed her rendition of “Blackbird” on her previous release Freedom Flight.  In fact, it was pretty much what cinched the album review in the first place.  I’m kind of a sucker for renditions of Beatles songs, and “Blackbird” always hits me in a soft spot on my heart, so there you go.  You can read that review, here, at this LINK.

Your video personnel:  Nicky Schrire (vocals), Nick Paul (piano), Sam Anning (bass), and Jake Goldbas (drums).

 

The video is directed by Shachar Langlev.

Have a great Sunday!
