Oregon-based Jazz singer/songwriter Halie Loren has released her new full-length album Dreams Lost and Found, out now via Nettwerk/Justin Time Records. This collection of songs explores themes of “longing, seeking, and seeing with new eyes.”

The album captures the essence of her live music which has led to tours and performances worldwide. The album includes standards, originals, and personal favorites. 

Halie Loren adds:

This album marks my return to a more jazz-oriented musical sound, but forged in a completely new environment of creativity (quite literally, in that I traveled to Montreal to record for the first time) that brought my improvisational spirit to the forefront—in no small part inspired by collaborating with masterful musicians Taurey Butler on piano, Morgan Moore on bass, Sam Kirmayer on Guitar, and Jim Doxas on drums.

Though I have performed for years with most of these amazingly talented people, we’ve never before recorded together… to me, it was like we were dancing on the edge of the unknown when creating these songs. It felt very alive in the moment, and I think that comes through the music.

Loren is celebrating her new album release with a run of shows in the Pacific Northwest.
