notes
Utilizing the full range of her rich contralto voice, Lois Deloatch has style ALL HER OWN! Her repertoires of both classic and original compositions reflect her deep appreciation for all genres of music, particularly jazz, blues, and spirituals. In recent years, she has headlined concerts and festivals throughout the country opening for and sharing the stage with music legends including Ellis Marsalis, Freddy Cole, Roberta Flack, and Arturo Sandoval. Drawing comparisons to Nina Simone and Cassandra Wilson, Lois's musical virtuosity and captivating stage presence make for unforgettable performances!
Her debut recording, Sunrise, (distributed under her former name, Lois Dawson) consisting of all original compositions received widespread critical acclaim. Her second recording, Closure, has been released in a limited edition, and features three jazz classics as well as six original compositions. Additionally, she is featured on the 2002 independent release, "Sometimes I Feel..." a collection of Negro Spirituals arranged by Barbara Cooke featuring violinist India Cooke and pianist Marva Cooper.

Simply Amazing
author: Jonathon AnstonFirst off the sheer tone and quality of her voice is a amazing, and the range of genres covered really lend to the haunting yet powerful soud of her voice. The accompinament from Gabe Evans and Ira wiggins crates an audible journey in which Deloatch is your capitan into a sea of emotion. The opening song "Reflection" is one of my favorites however the more playful "Perpetual Motion" is too much fun. Great album!
