Created in collaboration with arranger and composer Colin Skinner, “Day Dream” is a love letter to the legendary albums of Ella Fitzgerald and Frank Sinatra. The album was recorded at London’s RAK Studio, and was mastered at the legendary Abbey Road. "Day Dream" is Isobel's debut album and showcases her vocal performance at the heart of the record. "Day Dream" was released under Trapeze Music and Entertainment Ltd in April 2022.
‘Really lovely…great nuances in the vocal…great arrangements too of course’
Clare Teal – Jazz singer and broadcaster
She sounds so authentic and stylish but fresh at the same time’
John Wilson – conductor
'Isobel has an innate musicality for sure but more impressive is her natural vocal swagger, a rare commodity, putting you ‘the listener’ immediately at ease.’
Matt Ford – jazz and big band singer

about
Alway True To You (in my Fashion) was written by Cole Porter in 1948 for the musical ‘Kiss Me Kate’
lyrics
If a custom tailored vet
Asks me out for something wet
When the vet begins to pet, I cry, "Hooray"
But I'm always true to you, darlin', in my fashion
Yes, I'm always true to you, darlin', in my way
I've been asked to have a meal
By a big tycoon in steel
If the meal includes a deal, accept I may
But I'm always true to you, darlin', in my fashion
Yes, I'm always true to you, darlin', in my way
There's an oil man known as Tex
Who is keen to give me checks
And his checks, I fear, means that Tex is here to stay
But I'm always true to you, darlin', in my fashion
Yes, I'm always true to you, darlin', in my way
From Ohio, Mr. Thorn
Calls me up from night till morn
Mr. Thorn once cornered corn and that ain't hay
But I'm always true to you, darlin', in my fashion
Yes, I'm always true to you, darlin', in my way
From Milwaukee, Mr. Fritz
Often dines me at the Ritz
Mr. Fritz invented Schlitz and Schlitz must pay
But I'm always true to you, darlin', in my fashion
Yes, I'm always true to you, darlin', in my way
Mr. Harris Plutocrat
Wants to give my cheek a pat
If the Harris pat means a Paris hat, okay
But I'm always true to you, darlin', in my fashion
Yes, I'm always true to you, darlin', in my way
I'm always true to you, darlin', in my way
