The album features Nakasian paying tribute to twenty of jazz's great female singers. Nakasian's intention, as stated in the liner notes, is to emulate and mimic their styles and inflections in order to bring a sense of authenticity back to vocal jazz.
The extensive liner notes include a short biography of each singer as well as Nakasian's description of how she endeavors to achieve their unique sound.
All of the arrangements were taken from the originals and prepared by Nakasian and Hod O'Brien.
