Where do you go from #1? If you’re singer, songwriter and saxophonist Mindi Abair—whose 2006 release Life Less Ordinary debuted at the top of Billboard’s contemporary jazz chart—you step out of your comfort zone, reach deep inside, follow your heart, write a bunch of killer songs showcasing your dynamic vocals like never before and, yes, aim for the Stars.

With the highly anticipated release of Abair’s aptly titled debut produced by her company 23 Music Group on Peak Records, a division of the Concord Music Group, the amazingly versatile artist bursts onto the pop scene with gale force. She adds a refreshingly unique voice to an exciting new generation of crossover artists who are, like her, powerful instrumentalists as well as thought-provoking singer/songwriters. Beginning with the promotion of the title cut “Stars” to AC Radio, the Florida raised, Los Angeles-based performer’s unique hybrid sound and mix of cool vulnerability and utter conviction is going to give all of them—John Mayer, Feist, Corinne Bailey Rae, Sara Bareilles, Norah Jones —a run for their barrier breaking money.
