About This Song
About "Lullaby Of Birdland" by Dianne Reeves
Dianne Reeves turns 'Lullaby Of Birdland' into a velvet-lined reverie, her voice gliding over brushed drums and a walking bass. The tension is between the song's inherent swing and her caressing, almost hesitant phrasingβa birdland that feels both inviting and slightly melancholic, like a dream you can't quite hold.
