Carol Rossio: Home
My new 6-song EP "Pardon My French" was reviewed in the Feb. 2012 edition of Jazzscene Magazine by none other than Mr. George Fendel himself!
"Portlander Rossio has always had a preference for French lyrics, and she delivers them with ease and the skill of many years of experience. Nancy Sinatra had the hit, but Rossio puts Nancy in the dust on the unlikely choice, “These Boots Are Made for Walkin’” (in French!). On a “mini-disc” of six tunes, she works comfortably with pianist and keyboard ace Ramsey Embick. Highlights include the title tune, a Rossio original, and “Sympathique,” a lilting little melody line by Portland music maestro Thomas Lauderdale."
"Pardon My French" is now available on CD Baby and iTunes. Three of the six songs are in regular rotation on KMHD 89.1fm Public Jazz Radio right here in Portland! Call and request the tunes....that would be swell...
