“With Ann Moss’ new album, we are reminded that the only time is now — a short walk in the woods, remembering a snowflake, a handful of wildflowers. Take the journey through this album of self-discovery via the music of Griffin Candey, Kev Choice, Ricky Ian Gordon, Jake Heggie, David Howell, Ann Kearns, Cyndi Lauper, Joni Mitchell, Tom Petty and Stephen Sondheim and you’ll find yourself in the middle of the present moment saying, too, ‘NOW I AM.’ ”

“Ann has this magic quality that somehow makes composers want to write for her, because not only does she perform their songs, she invests in them, physically, emotionally, personally. I think she’s a transformative artist, because she can cross genres so easily. She’s not only comfortable in classics and Baroque music, but she also is expert at new music. Nothing scares her.”
Currents (Angels Share Records, 2013)
Soprano Ann Moss’s first portrait album spotlights music by Weslie Brown, Liam Wade, John Thow, Vartan Aghababian, and Joni Mitchell. Produced by Leslie Ann Jones at Skywalker Sound and featuring the Hausmann Quartet, pianists Steven Bailey and Karen Rosenak, guitarist Jeremías García, multi-instrumentalist Matt Berkeley, bassist Dewayne Pate and drummer Joe Bagale.

“I’m drawn to saying ‘yes’ to things that will challenge me in different ways, but I’ve never worked on a record with this kind of diverse material.”
“I’ve been listening to Currents for about three weeks now on a pretty regular rotation, and with each listening it reveals more of itself. Like Esperanza Spaulding’s Chamber Music Society, it covers a lot of ground, and the album’s cohesion reveals itself through repeated listening.”

“Lifeline is a beautiful window into two similar women, both bound by circumstance to their anchoritic cells, and both producing otherworldly visions. It is also an admirable social statement about isolation and togetherness that should resonate with all listeners with an open mind. I found it cathartic, challenging, and delightful.”
