Diana Krall Ditches Jazz For Pop On New Album 'Wallflower', Reflects On Working With Paul McCartney — billboard.com

Singer-pianist Diana Krall wants to make one thing clear about Wallflower, her new CD: It's a pop album, not a jazz album. For her 12th album, Krall enlisted fellow British Columbian David Foster, a 16-time Grammy winner. Foster did the arrangements and played most of the piano parts, freeing Krall to focus on her vocals. Three Rock and Roll Hall of Famers provide background vocals on several tracks: Stephen Stills, Graham Nash and Timothy B. Schmit of the Eagles (on his own "I Can't Tell You Why"). Krall sings duets with two fellow Canadians: Michael Buble on Gilbert O'Sullivan's "Alone Again (Naturally)" and Bryan Adams on Randy Newman's "Feels Like Home."
