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
Don’t Sleep On The Subway was written by Tony Hatch and Jackie Trent for British singer Petula Clark who recorded it in 1967
lyrics
You wander around on your own little cloud
When you don't see the why or the wherefore
You walk out on me when we both disagree
'Cause to reason is not what you care for
I've heard it all a million times before
Take off your coat, my love, and close the door
Don't sleep in the subway, darlin', don't stand in the pouring rain
Don't sleep in the subway, darlin', the night is long
Forget your foolish pride, nothing's wrong
Now you're beside me again
You try to be smart, then you take it to heart
'Cause it hurts when your ego is deflated
You don't realize that it's all compromise
And the problems are so overrated
Goodbye means nothing when it's all for show
So why pretend you've somewhere else to go
Don't sleep in the subway, darlin', don't stand in the pouring rain
Don't sleep in the subway, darlin', the night is long
Forget your foolish pride, nothing's wrong
Now you're beside me again
Don't sleep in the subway, darlin', don't stand in the pouring rain
Don't sleep in the subway, darlin', the night is long
Forget your foolish pride, nothing's wrong
Now you're beside me again
Don't sleep in the subway, darlin', don't stand in the pouring rain
Don't sleep
