Scottie Haskell's "Stories To Tell," the title track of her debut album, is a signature moment, with classical allusions and sweeping violins. Now, veteran Los Angeles session singer Scottie is beginning to step into her own musical spotlight.
"Stories To Tell" marks the beginning of a personal and creative journey for Scottie as she embarks on this new musical chapter. The song's vocal version reveals Scottie's versatility as a singer-songwriter, fusing classical touches with moody, well-crafted arrangements. Lovely violins run through the piece, giving it a cinematic quality and adding emotion to the mood. They're incredibly catchy and memorable, but they also have a great deal of depth. It's an indicator of her decades-long tenure in the music business.
Everything about the music is so precise, adding to the story rather than detracting from it. The classical undertones lend the song some weight, and the singer-songwriter approach keeps it personal and close. It's a legacy that stays with you after it's all said and done. Her dad, Grammy-winning arranger, composer, and conductor Jimmie Haskell, is also on the album and featured on two songs.
"Stories To Tell" is a solid song in itself, but the significance of heirloom music adds another dimension to much of the rest. There is also a full instrumental version for those of you who like variety, but this vocal version really showcases her skill and charisma. "Stories To Tell" is reflective, beautiful, and emotionally stunning. It is also a splendid way to introduce an artist who, with courage and verve, has been launching herself into her own story.
