San Francisco-based vocalist and songwriter Jacqui Naylor launches her fifth CD, The Color Five, with shimmering hints of jazz, pop, and rock while adding touches of gospel, folk, blues, and even a little humor into the mix. With The Color Five, Naylor has created an eclectic yet seamless recording of five original tunes, five impeccably-chosen covers, and five of her trademark "acoustic smashes." Acoustic smashing - a phrase coined by Naylor to describe this unique style - is the singing of a rock tune over a jazz standard or vice versa. For example, Naylor sings the Gershwins' classic "Summertime" over the groove of The Allman Brothers' "Whipping Post" or U2's "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" over Miles Davis' "All Blues."
