Charlotte Greve - Waterbodies Charlotte Greve

WATERBODIES is the debut solo album from German-born, Brooklyn-based saxophonist, composer and singer Charlotte Greve. Praised by The New York Times as “definitely her own artist” and featured on two of the publication’s best-of lists, Greve has drawn acclaim from Pitchfork, MOJO and The Wire for a sound that moves fluidly across jazz, classical and experimental traditions.

A sought-after sidewoman for artists including Chris Morrissey, Laura Veirs, Cass McCombs and Matt Pavolka, Greve recently premiered Breathe for the award-winning vocal ensemble Lorelei. Her piece for saxophone and choir, Continuing, was presented by Carnegie Hall and premiered at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum.

Produced by Shahzad Ismaily, WATERBODIES features an expansive cast, including New York vocal ensemble KHORIKOS and the Bratislava Symphony Orchestra. The album moves between jazz, ambient and classical music, power ballads and ’80s-inspired dance-pop.

Greve’s most personal work to date, WATERBODIES gives her the freedom to explore the music she loves without settling into a single style.
