Tal Wilkenfeldâs new album 'Love Remains,â which debuted at number 1 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart, is a testament to the celebrated bassistâs unconventional journey, revealing a new side of Tal as a âformidable singer-songwriterâ (Rolling Stone). 'Love Remains' âdocuments [Talâs] facility as a songwriter and a rich, expressive singer whose voice brings a fluid kind of cohesionâ (Billboard), and critics say the album is âoutstanding by all accountsâ (Paste).
With few models of an instrumentalist turned singer-songwriter, Tal has broken extraordinary new ground. As Jackson Browne acknowledged, âI can't think of another instrumentalist that has ventured into the area that Tal now has, when it comes to writing and singing songs from her own experience.â
Having performed as a bassist with Jeff Beck, Mick Jagger, Prince, The Allman Bros, Herbie Hancock, and many more, Talâs experiences playing with the greats has inspired her to hone her craft as an artist in her own right.
