Jazz vocalist Tine Bruhn's debut album “Entranced” is a welcoming blend of mellow, yet groove-based originals, two contemporary pieces by Joshua Redman with Tine's lyrics, songs by McCoy
Tyner and Djavan, and a Swedish folk song arranged as a jazz waltz. The CD features Maurice Brown (trumpet) on two of the tracks, Daniela Schächter (piano), Marco Panascia (bass), Greg Hutchinson
(drums). Tine Bruhn moved to New York City in 2001 after having graduated from Berklee College of Music in Boston. She quickly became part of New York’s jazz scene as she started singing at
“Kavehaz” and has since performed at some of the city’s best music venues including “The Jazz Standard”, “The Cutting Room” and “55 Bar”. Once a month Tine and her group of outstanding musicians
perform at the well-known jazz club “Zinc Bar” in downtown Manhattan. Born in 1978, Tine grew up belonging to the Danish minority in Flensburg, Germany. At the age of 15 she founded the a cappella
group “Kvart I Fire” which gained high recognition in Denmark and Germany, especially after its release of the CD “Go 4 it” in 1996. The group kept an average of 3 performances a week during their
high school years and they were requested at many official functions as well as private parties. Additionally Tine sang in classical choirs including the highly renowned semi-professional youth
choir “Landes Jugend Chor Schleswig Holstein” and “Jugend Kammer Chor Flensburg”. Around that time she discovered her passion for jazz and started getting solo gigs. In Boston she continued
performing in a cappella settings, one of them being the “Vocal Jazz Ensemble” under the direction of Sharon Broadley-Martin, a Vox One member. She studied with Sheryl Bentyne (Manhattan Transfer),
Walter Beasley, recording artist, Richard Evans, Grammy award winning arranger, and legendary scat educator Bob Stoloff. In April 2009 the Tine Bruhn Quartet was on tour in Europe where they played
at sold out venues such as “B-Flat” in Berlin. A follow up tour is being planned for the Summer of 2010 with a focus on jazz festivals. Tine Bruhn's music is getting played on the following radio
stations: AnimaJazz 91.6 FM, Italy AccuJazz Chicago Women Of Substance (www.live365.com) Kanal Jazz France www.purejazzradio.com and others.
