Simone Kopmajer´s new album „HOPE“ contains brand-new original material in a smooth and relaxing, jazzy mood as well as cover songs like „Sitting on the Dock of the Bay“ (Otis Redding), „Careless Whisper“(George Michael) and jazz standards such as „Pick Yourself Up“, „What a Difference a Day Makes“ and „Old Devil Moon“.

Accompanied by the leader of the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra  jazz saxophonist Terry Myers, pianist Paul Urbanek, bassist Karl Sayer and drummer Reinhardt Winkler Simone captures the classic vibe and also pulls the songs out of her own songbook.

Kopmajer´s sound is located somewhere between jazz, swing and tasteful pop. Although her music is very relaxed, flowing and elegant, it is also very playful and varied.
