Gaining a reputation as one of the premier jazz vocalists in the L.A./O.C. area and Winner of the prestigious Orange County
Music Awards® for Best Jazz Artist 2004, noted vocalist Cris Barber caps a winning year by re-entering the studio to record

cohesive sound indicative of a truly great jazz album.
REVIEWS
"Just when you thought jazz great Cris Barber couldn't get any better... she comes out with her new #1 CD "Comes
Love"... this time she takes you from the sun ("East of the Sun") to Louisiana ("Louisiana Sunday Afternoon").
My review is more of a recommendation ... buy the CD... get a bottle of wine (candles optional), and share your best friend
with Cris."

"Played track 1 of your great CD "Comes Love". In my opinion, you have the "IT" factor with your
music and it is a pleasure to feature you in my programs. "Keep on Keeping on".
