Take It With Me showcases a spectrum of tunes that includes both brand new, original songs and spellbinding re-imaginings of rarities from the American songbook. PRESS HERE to watch the video for album track “Git Gone.” Whether she’s singing Randy Newman’s lyrically charged “Louisiana 1927,” the rolling gospel of Pops Staples’s “Move Along Train,” or the old-style country of Hank Williams’s “I Can’t Help It If I’m Still In Love With You,” she finds a way to unearth new meaning in these songs. Ozell, who is the wife of actor Patrick Stewart, infuses her music with a soulful patchwork of blues, jazz, classic country, gospel and roots music, a style that she honed throughout a decade of performing live shows in NYC, and derivative of her self-proclaimed “western” upbringing in Reno, Nevada. On stage, Ozell’s elegant aura and luminous personality shine, as she offers a rich and mesmerizing journey through different musical styles and eras in a way that only she can deliver.
