Emmy Rossum’s 12 track passion project, Sentimental Journey, is an emotional musical journey with each song representing a month in the year. According to Emmy, “Each song needed to either lyrically or emotionally reflect the corresponding month. Some songs were obvious fits, like Summer Wind for June, and Pretty Paper for December. Others songs were less literal fits. I chose Nobody Knows You (When You’re Down and Out) for September because, to me, the plaintive melody and lyric emotionally reflect the cold weather creeping in and the sense of melancholy we can get in the fall months.”
Sweet as honey on a lazy summer day, Sentimental Journey is a collection of classic covers that takes one through the American Songbook. The vintage tunes are complimented by Emmy’s gorgeous Old Hollywood-style portraits. For a taste of the album, listen to “These Foolish Things (Remind Me of You)”.
Sentimental Journey is now available on iTunes and Amazon.com

She’s so cool. I should look it up. And I LOVE these pictures.
Wow, I never knew that Emmy Rossum sang, how talented! I took a listen to “These Foolish Things” – she’s got a great voice!
I’m so glad that she’s putting her voice out there! I found out she sang when she was cast in The Phantom a few years ago and was really impressed. I’ll have to check this out!
thanks for introducing her, as I am not a music updated person….
she looks like Penelope Cruz
I like the inspiration behind the album
I LOVE this album! And the vintage artwork is just gorgeous.
