THE DUET........Emerald Jade and Craig Anthony has become one of music's most magnetic soulful duos since Nat King Cole and Natalie Cole, Roberta Flack and Donny Hathaway, Marvin Gaye and Tammy Terrell. Their voices smooth, cool, sassy jazz neo-soul style combining soothing warmth with distinctive jazz undertones. Their music has haunting melodies with hypnotic qualities that encourage a laidback state of mind that is relaxing rather than urgent.
The lead voice belongs to Emerald Jade and it is joined on occasions by that of Craig Anthony, who orchestrates the music and accompanies her. "We like what we do," he says. "It's music people can relate to, and we can have fun while we're doing it." Their performance is always polished, stylish, and compulsive listening to the ear.
The International Recording Artists are well known in the soul jazz world of the USA, and now, through radio plays of their CD, A New Classic, in Europe and Asia as well. The title is appropriate as Emerald Jade is in the classic tradition of soul jazz singers with a modern sound. A New Classic features songs she has written herself along with Craig Anthony.

Emerald Jade, who is originally from Gary, Indiana.
If you LOVE Neo-Soul, as they call it, and the likes of N'Dambi, Ledisi, Antoinique, India Arie and Erykah Badu are to your taste them please make yourself familiar with the sultry, sassy Emerald Jade. Emerald is no less married to Co-Producer and Co-label owner, Craig Monroe and their love and commitment shine through on this excellent CD. This is a personal CD for the couple and much of the material is based on their love and life and is a rare and precious insight into a special musical and familial relationship. Think Kindred, Womack & Womack. You get the picture.
Emerald is no new kid on the block either. She has worked with such luminaries as the UK's finest musical export, Rod Temperton, Philly Supremo Dexter Wansel, the late great saxman Grover Washington, Michael Stokes and her son who is Jesse Powell! This is a CD that embraces the Neo-Soul genre with much warmth and affection and is a set that contains no fillers or wasters. Every song is a winner, and the slinky funk, cool jazz or sassy soul combinations are so clean, fresh and clear that the result is one heck of a refreshing listen.
