NEW SINGLE OUT TODAY!! 🎶🎤💗🇫🇷 I’m NEW SINGLE OUT TODAY!! 🎶🎤💗🇫🇷 I’m thrilled to release “La Table Qui Était Seule” my first French chanson. ▶️ link in bio to listen - take a 5-minute vacation to a café in a small town in France! Born in the atmosphere of the first confinement, the lyrics were written by my dear friend & acclaimed author Christophe Fourvel. I put his words to music and we recorded while in isolation. The song kept me connected to France & the French language during lockdown in NYC. When I first read the lyric, I was astounded by the power and beauty of Christophe’s imagery, the intimate way in which he captured what we were feeling during the lockdown here in New York City, My second thought was, how am I ever going to sing this?! A few days later, the melody arrived, seemingly of its own accord, and I just followed where it wanted to go. Within 20 minutes the song was complete. It felt truly miraculous. Christophe says, “I wanted to create a feeling of ambiguous loneliness, a kind of solitude which could come down to the lockdown but also of personal events and situations. I know the strong connection Valerie has with France. I thought of her, and wrote a song speaking about a person in New York who chooses an “isolated” table to feel closer to the distant people she loves.” You’ll hear beautiful cellos by Dave Eggar, and Jerome Buigues on acoustic guitar, with myself on piano/vocals, all recorded remotely during the pandemic year. The poignant cover is an original work of art by renowned abstract painter Jean-Pierre Schneider. I’m excited, and a bit nervous to release an original song in the French language. But Christophe’s confidence in my ability to sing in French (even with my New York accent!), and the beauty of his words carry me forward. it’s a time of uncertainty and change, I feel inspired to go out on a limb and try something new. I hope you enjoy our new creation! Thank you for your love & support-it means the world to me ❤️💜❤️ #newmusicfriday #newsingle #chansonfrancaise #albumcover #painting #valerieghent #daveeggar #jeanpierreschneider #trysomethingnew #dowhatyoulove #musicislife @asideofcello

Every day I think of Nick Ashford. Mentor, friend, Every day I think of Nick Ashford. Mentor, friend, boss, inspiration, I give thanks in remembering Nick, who - along with his beautiful, mega-talented wife and songwriting partner, Valerie Simpson - took me under their wing back in 1989. They changed my life forever, and I am forever grateful for the blessing. This photo is from the mid-90s, at one of the fabulous 4th of July parties Nick and Val held each summer. it’s Impossible to fathom how 10 years have passed since Nick left our world…. I hear your voice still Nick, after decades of our recording sessions, concerts and tours. Love and miss you always.
