On her new album, Meant to Be—the eagerly anticipated follow-up to her acclaimed 1999 debut, Under the Influence—singer Jenna Mammina continues her relentlessly inventive exploration of new creative territory, and her quest for transcendence of the old boundaries that once separated musical styles.
For the second time, Jenna is collaborating with producer Cookie Marenco collecting songs from a dizzying variety of sources—from jazz immortals such as Duke Ellington and Fats Waller to rock, pop and folk icons like U2, Steely Dan, James Taylor and Tom Waits—and in doing so has made bold strides toward bringing the definition of “standards”—those songs that stand the test of time—fully up to date in the 21st Century.

Jenna Mammina (long time Blue Coast Records’ favorite) and Rolf Sturm visited our studio for a special one of a kind recording! A must hear is “Wicked Game” – a song originally written and performed by Chris Isaac. Jenna and Rolf put their unique spin on this classic song making a haunting version all their own. The album flows effortlessly as they perform classic pop and jazz songs of the 70’s and 80’s. Recorded without headphones or overdubs, you’ll hear every breathe and strum of the vocals and guitar.
