MUMBAI: There are no two ways about it; “Table For Two” is a perfect romantic film song. Lourdes Duque Baron’s exquisite vocals, coupled with the composing eloquence of multi-platinum music producer, Andrew Lane create a playful sophistication akin to those revered by 50s and 60s jazz standards. Teaming up again with Lane, who also produced Baron’s last album and who also frequently collaborates with jazz music royalty Ron Ellington Shy, Baron winds up with a whimsical yet chic single that recalls the passionate late-night European sophistication of traditional jazz mixed with a contemporary sound. Listen to ‘Table For Two’ here.
“Table For Two” is an original song Lane wrote specifically for Baron. He chose this song for Baron because of “her worldliness and her deep vocal sound.” Lane also composed the arrangement. The song is playful and paints a picture of warm intimacy and romance. Seldom has music seen a more versatile, talented, and dynamic performer than Lourdes Duque Baron as she proves with her vocal range here.
Sir Jorge of Sell Out Records recently wrote about Baron’s music prowess. “What truly gets you is the way the music flows amidst her sultry and powerful voice. It dips, and it rises but in such a unique fashion. This is something that only real singers can do, and it’s majestic in a way that you don’t really see often from a lot of other performers. Once you sit down and truly listen to Lourdes Duque Baron’s [sic] here, you will definitely agree with me, this is an intrepid piece of music and sung by a true master. I loved it, and feel that it needs to get more attention.” Read the full article here.

Baron’s look and sound has been referred to as ‘timeless.’ Her music transports the audience back to those days of smoky, dim lounges where men in debonair suits would hover around women in glistening evening attire, and the clinging of martini glasses was endless. Without a doubt, the Rat Pack era is responsible for some very fine jazz standards. Baron’s new single is a masterpiece and could very well prove to be part of Rat Pack for the modern era collection. “Table For Two” is available on iTunes, Amazon and MTV.
Baron will be performing at the upstairs jazz lounge at Vitello’s Restaurant in Studio City on Saturday, December 13, 2014 along with Rock and Roll Hall of Famer, Ron Ellington Shy.
