Back to the Grind

/

The Houston Gospel Music Legends event hosted by Kurt Carr and Yolanda Adams was an extravaganza extrordinaire. As a presenter, Hedreich’s role was relaxed enough so that she could enjoy the festivities of the evening with “Legends” she’s known since childhood. One of the event’s highlights was Hedreich sitting in as drummer on the award winning “Order My Steps” sung by Barbara Johnson Tucker, who happens to be Hedreich’s Godmother. It goes without saying that presenting the BC&S Music Excellence award on behalf of her mother–Brenda Waters– was a very special honor.
Now safely again ensconced in the Swiss Alps, the unpacking will have to wait. In addition to all the vacation paperwork piles, Hedreich has been invited to work on a Michael Jackson tribute project with Al Walser, Nubya, Phil and Tanya Dankner and Jesse Brown. The project is spearheaded by Jermaine Jackson and is slated to be released for August 29th, Michael Jackson’s birthday. Check back in a few days to see how the session went. In the mean time, we’ll keep a light on for ya…

Pure Americana

/

Imagine a perfect Fourth of July. A warm summer evening with people of all ages under an open sky dancing, singing, toe-tapping. Picture people of African, Asian, Hispanic, European and mostly–to a greater or lesser degree-of mixed racial descent all listening to a music born of that melting pot: Swing! The Olney Big Band played fiery renditions from some of America’s most beloved composers from the 30s 40s and 50s. Hedreich, the evening’s special guest, peppered OBB’s performance with her rendition of Lady is a Tramp. Her scat solo won her the hearts of the listeners. She rounded out the evening leading the audience in song with these words; “…let us all be grateful for a land so fair, as we lift our voices in a solemn prayer; God bless America, land that I love…” Happy Birthday America from the hedreich.com team.

Studio success

/

If you are a connoiseur of those cool vocal harmonies that make or break or song you can understand how much fun Hedreich had over the weekend. After putting down the sound with Gölä, Rachael and Corrinne on Friday, she inched her way over to Jeannot’s in Canton Zürich and got down to business on her own project. Saturday produced –who knows–maybe the first single?!! And it was goooood!

…or shall we say studios. Tomorrow it’s back to the studio with Gölä and band to do some background vocals. And on Saturday it’s back to Soundcheck studios. Time now for our artist to get into the recording phase of next year’s solo project. Track 1 is on it’s way to being finished and the second is underway. Curious?

Sunday Morning!

Just in case you’re planning on coming to the Pentecost Sunday service in Nuolen we thought you might like to know that you can still have a bit of a lie in. The service starts at 11AM. With Thomas Schuler on piano and Mario Kühne directing, it may be worth it to cut your brunch a little short!

Preachers Wife

If you missed Hedreich singing for the Bishop with her choir in early May, catch her this Sunday singing with the Nuolen Church Choir at 9.30. The Pentecost will be truly celebrated as she sings selections from The Preacher’s Wife as well as an old Carol Antrom favorite–“Singing of Jesus”.

Princess for a day at the Tarasp castle

/

WOW! Who’s that girl?! Stylist Moni Haeslin and a few tubes and vials of Bobbi Brown made a good thing even better at the breathtaking Tarasp castle. Hedreich got to play princess for a day and according to Christian Funke’s camera and there was definitely a bit of fairy tale magic at play. You’ll have to wait a bit to see the final results but here’s a teaser in the mean time…
