Family is important to Anita Eccleston. As the youngest of seven kids, she grew up surrounded by a flurry of activity. Music was a constant in the household, the living room piano a mainstay. A hand-me-down trumpet became her voice in her formative years, and later as a vocalist she kept a horn in her hands while crooning all her favourite jazz tunes.

Looking through old photo albums, she noticed that over the years the Eccleston family were the stars of her life. Giving unwavering support, they’ve undoubtedly been her most important influences. Family Christmases in Kamloops, epic concerts in Vancouver and Montreal. There was family with her every step of the way.

Anita’s latest projects are instrumental electronic beats infused with trumpet and layered vocal pads. Her new instrumental single, “Family” has all the warmth and love she received from her family and friends on her recent wedding day. The magical fullness of love in the room that day, felt by all, out-poured from her heart into song.

A hummed refrain hints at the routines of ordinary days, a mother folding laundry or a walk in the park. The groove settles into a serene vibe, feeling like a laid-back afternoon, watching sunset colours transforming into evening. Compact trumpet interjections lead to an expansive horn solo, shimmering like a starlit sky. A curious synth refrain sounds aloft, smiling curiously to an embracing choral culmination.

“Family” feels like a journey of growth and change, all while staying inevitably the same.

Traditions deconstructed like a jigsaw and put together anew, Winter Gala's old-timey carols reemerge in a lofi jazz dream, glistening with bells. Ambient, beats, texture, emotion, nostalgia. The album is evocative of the hyper communal feelings that Christmas brings. Brass-laden warmth is wrapped in rich vocal pads, lofi ukulele grooves with bass atop of bouncing beats.

More Trumpet  Released 18 December 2016.
An exciting follow-up to her debut release 'Jazz EP' (2011), Anita Eccleston’s new jazz album 'More Trumpet' is an intimate collection of traditional standards showcasing her distinctive vocal stylings alongside a whole lot more trumpet! With her savvy collaborators, guitarist and occasional vocalist Andrew Smith, guest cellist Doug Gorkoff, and bassist Graham Clark, Anita’s arrangements reveal a mature subtlety of craft. Reminiscent at times of Diana Krall’s drumless Love Scenes album, More Trumpet is steeped in romance with upbeat songs like “Fly Me to The Moon”, “Time After Time”, and “All of Me” not to mention the nostalgic ballads “These Foolish Things” and “What a Wonderful World.” Her sophisticated vocal palette is exemplified in the eerily haunting “Angel Eyes,” while her playful lyricism on trumpet throughout the album acts as an extension of that voice. Guitarist Andrew Smith is the featured vocalist in an elegant rendition of “I’m Just a Lucky So and So.” Anita has said “Although I am often artistically drawn to many genres of music, my deepest love is for jazz and I feel the most at home within the sphere of the jazz world...I wanted to create an album that would allow me to sing and play from my heart.”

"This is a collection of traditional jazz standards that let her vocals shine and excellently showcases her lyrical trumpet playing. “More Trumpet” is an apt title for this album, as I think we get a little bit more of her heartfelt trumpet playing than on previous albums... this album does an excellent job of showcasing the great talent in her band:.. The addition of the cello on several tracks is unexpected, and also gloriously unique and a really nice added touch to the sound. Anita’s voice absolutely captivates throughout the album. She has a great joy and playfulness to her sound on the up-tempo tunes, fully delves into the emotional depths in the ballads, and throughout she has that signature sultry tone that I just can’t get enough of. The increase in trumpet playing is a very welcome aspect to this album as well. She has a wonderfully lyrical, expressive voice with her horn. This is a solid disk, with very enjoyable takes on timeless jazz standards. Great singing, great playing, and a really nice flow from one track to the next. If you like jazz, I think you will really enjoy this album." - December 15, 2016 "More Trumpet" Album Review (Ryan Noakes, Musetta Stone) Downloadable PDF

."Anita Eccleston's More Trumpet has plenty of voice...the album finds her working through classics from the jazz songbook." - December 13, 2016 More Trumpet showcases singer’s other instrument (Stuart Derdeyn, Vancouver Sun) Downloadable PDF
