Product Description

Album Review
Vocalist/pianist Peter Cincotti burst onto the jazz scene in 2003 as an 18-year-old wunderkind much in the same way that Harry Connick Jr. positioned himself as an updated crooner with a debut album of enjoyable if predictable standards from various decades. Interestingly, Cincotti's follow-up, On the Moon, finds him exploring funk and soft rock balladry. Similar to his British contemporary Jamie Cullum, Cincotti seems intent here on mixing a radio-friendly melodic pop aesthetic with his jazz chops. In fact, the title track sounds a lot like Cullum's single "All at Sea," which is not to say that Cincotti is ripping anybody off. On the contrary, while there are touches of David Gates, Barry Manilow, and even Coldplay, it is hard to pinpoint any concrete influences for Cincotti's singer/songwriter style. While original songs are the focus this time around, there is also a bevy of inspired standard tunes. To these ends, he opens the album with a funky, hip-hop-influenced take on "St. Louis Blues," gives "Bali Ha'i" a bluesy Sting-influenced vibe, and turns "Up on the Roof" into a cinematic ballad. Adding to the lush atmosphere are full string arrangements and guest spots by such sought-after New York artists as keyboardist Sam Yahel, trombonist Wycliffe Gordon, and drummer Kenny Washington. --Matt Collar, All Music Guide

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Newcomer, 18 Sep 2005
By K. Johansen "dustyobe" (Scotland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I was so impressed with this album that I bought his previous album and can't wait for the third.

If you like singers who can sing and musicians who can play then this is for you.

Starting off with a great version of St. Louis Blues you'll find the music so soothing, he is not "In Your Face" like some "singers" and never goes over the top. Peter's music is the kind you can relax to, it's for listening, relaxing or even for background at a dinner party.

The song "You Don't Know Me" I knew before by Ray Charles and an old 60's hit "Up On The Roof" are all given a new treatment.

If you like Michael Buble and the wonderful Steve Tyrell then you'll like Peter!

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb!, 27 Feb 2006
By FRJ (Bristol, England) - See all my reviews
I heard his rendition of St Louis Blues for the first time on Parkinson and I do not know what it was but there was something about this song and the man that just got me hooked. I bought the album the very next day and there is not a week goes by that I do not listen to this album. He has such an easy voice to listen to and he is a marvelous, talented pianist. I also have purchased his first album, which I find pretty much the same. Where has this man been hiding? If I was going to sum him up in two words, it would be "Pure Genius". Come on Pete, when is the next album being released? Hurry up, I can't wait.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wow!, 3 Nov 2004
This review is from: On the Moon (Audio CD)
I have my brother to blame for my love of peters' music after hearing and the buying his debut cd i felt i had to get this one and i wasn't disappointed this is better than his first a bit less jazz more pop i think the title track "on the moon" is beautiful and my fave track on the album,peter, i feel has a huge future in front of him,i feel he is hugely underated wonderful singer/songwriters don't come along often...enjoy with candles and wine..and buy if you like jamie cullum and michael buble..great cd and very enjoyable
