Once more an encore performance by the lovely Hydeus Kiatta. She has been in the studio and this time she brought with her three new and wonderfully inspiring tunes. Hydeus has been performing in the Bay area for years and now lives here in Southern California. This was her second performance at Lunaria Jazz and Supper club and she once again delivered.

Singing original songs from her first album "On the Ground I Walk", Hydeus takes you into her world and lets you experience her travel, her passion and her love for this universe. She also loves to dip into the Duke Ellington songbook performing titles like "Caravan" and "Solitude" in a style all her own.

"Grass is Greener" is one of her latest compositions and has an upbeat and soulful sound while "Autumns Treat" is a piece inspired by all of the wonderful thing about love!

Her quartet consisted of the amazing John Rangel on Piano, the mulit-talented Derf Reklaw on Percussion and Flute and new addition to band Kevin O'Neil on Bass. The played three great sets of music and one member of the audience called her "Sexy and refreshing!" Chris Walker of the Los Angeles Jazz Scene says " An amazing singer, who once you hear her, you can't help but fall under her spell".

The next time you hear the name Hydeus Kiatta, stop and take a listen. Drop by the club to hear a real original artist do her magic! Keep your eyes posted in your local jazz listings.
