Inspirations sees Los Angeles jazz singer Dwight Trible cover some of the songs and artists that shaped his formative musical years. With Manchester bandleader, arranger and trumpeter Matthew Halsall providing direction and production, Trible delivers a string of memorable interpretations. Highlights include a rousing, near riotous cover of Nina Simone favourite "Feeling Good", a spiritual, harp-laden rendition of Hal David and Burt Bacharach's "What The World Needs Now is Love" - a radical departure from the original, featuring one of Trible's greatest vocal performances to date - and a poignant, heartfelt version of Leroy Hutson and Donny Hathaway's still relevant "Tryin' Times".
