A jazz standard reimagined without nostalgia—bare, exposed, and emotionally raw. The first listen from Niia’s upcoming project on the relaunched heritage Jazz label Candid Records. On Angel Eyes, Niia reimagines the beloved 1946 jazz standard by Matt Dennis & Earl B. Brent—famously interpreted by many of the jazz greats, but most notably by Chet Baker, whose cool‑jazz rendition remains a defining touchstone of Niia’s musical center. Slow phrasing, minimal vibrato, and soft reharmonization deliver a farewell to tradition. Niia’s version, produced with Spencer Zahn, bridges vintage elegance with modern warmth. A bold, heartfelt nod to tradition—and a thrilling first glimpse of what’s to come. This is the sound of a modern day Jazz Singer.
