The International Jazz Scene continues to grow, producing new and exciting talent each year - from the Netherlands to Australia, the “most American art form” is finding vital restoration overseas. Anna Luca is one such act, a Swedish/German singer/songwriter and veteran of Nu jazz act Club Des Belugas. Listen and Wait marks her first solo effort, an incredibly luminous and variegated work. She sings of one-night-stands, wanderlust, love, loss and even suicide. Listen and Wait is a pop record, ambitious and unfulfilled. When the artist sings on the title track, “I need to calm down myself, and learn to listen and wait,” one can’t help but wonder if she’s heeding her own advice. The album is a bold first step into new territory for Anna Luca, it may take some time to find out just where she’s landed, where she’s going.
