By Aparna Datta ( http://www.aparnadatta.com) February 23, 2010 With so many talents in one package it is extremely hard to compare Ava Lemert to any other musician out there on the music scene today. While her vocals can be compared to Gladys Knight or Mary J Blige, it is quite hard to categorize her talents. The sounds of Jazz, R&B, Soul, and Funk all melt into one amazing CD. From My Soul is exactly that, from Ava’s soul. With songs of love, passion, heartache, dance and jazzy tunes your enjoyment will last the whole CD through. The rhythmic sounds and sensual lyrics are perfect for a romantic evening by a warm fire. Turn on the fireplace and bring out the rug for “You Know You Got It”. While you listen to this song your confidence will explode and the person you are with will definitely know that you got it! The sensuality brought out by Ava’s saxophone is hard to turn off, particularly in “Rhodelea” where this sax track is rhythmic and slow. For those singles out there this CD should not be dismissed, songs of breaking up “You Got Somethin’ Coming To You” and “Won’t Be Your Plaything” are powerful and filled with intense emotions. The struggle of not being heard in a relationship is brought out within this song and the feeling of frustration is portrayed perfectly. One night stands (Nothing Looks the Same in Light) are also featured within this CD, yet the coldness of the event is not. Feelings of an attachment growing are released, and a longing for something you cannot have is evident. Ava has managed to create intense stories with her lyrics. Dance tunes are in no way absent within the CD. “I Wanna Funk It Up” is readily available for a good dance around your living room and for some funk and jazz beats. Ava’s sultry voice and the sensual tunes from her saxophone and professional band make From My Soul pleasurable, enjoyable, and extremely worth the purchase of this amazing CD.

My show tonight at Eskaton Gold River was in all honesty ‘MAGICAL’ for me.

Imagine this: an unknown such as myself with a room full of people enjoying every song, waiting through the breaks, listening and interacting with me, sharing and laughing, smiling, a few tears of joy and memories… My heart is so touched I can’t even express it. The images are etched on my mind forever as I hope I have touched the folks at Eskaton Gold River who joined me tonight. I finally got to experience that as a performer and I have found my goal: to have shows like that again, and again. If it means the only gigs I do are at retirement communities, so be it. I felt wanted, I felt like I connected and that what I sang and played gave joy to others. A couple in walker & wheelchair held hands during “Embraceable You”
It might sound corny, but it’s all true. I think it’s all the well wishes any prayers my way, just fantastic. They could throw eggs at me at Marylin’s, I won’t care. Gosh how I needed this. I admit, it would be really nice to sell some CDs and help my family’s bottom line but on a Spritual level, I hit a jackpot tonight.

Thank you Bobbie, Amber, Joe, Brenda and the wonderful residents and their loved ones who shared this evening with me at Eskaton Gold River. “It Was Just One of Those Things” is on my “MUST LEARN” list!
