Named after the Japanese word for chameleon, Susan Wong's twelfth album Kamereon highlights the Hong Kong-born singer's unerring ability to bring a fresh, new complexion to a wide range of songs taken from different musical genres

Aided by her producer, the Osaka- born saxophonist Hisatsugu Suzuki, and his band, Wong has created a stylish jazz album brimming with her trademark soulful vocals drizzled over syncopated grooves. Taking well- known songs from the repertoires of pop music acts as diverse as Phil Collins ("Against All Odds"), Pet Shop Boys ("It's A Sin"), Dead Or Alive ("You Spin Me Round") and Toploader ("Dancing In The Moonlight"), Wong refashions her source material to refect the cool jazz-favored sophistication that is at the heart of her unique artistry. From emotive ballads to buoyant uptempo material, Susan Wong reveals her outstanding interpretative skills, revealing that she is a song stylist supreme.

The album is available on 180g vinyl LP, SACD - Hybrid Multi-Channel, MQA-CD, and digitally - made using the High Dynamic Master.
