After winning the 2015 Sarah Vaughan International Vocal Competition then performing at the Montreal International Jazz Festival the following year, 25-year-old singer and songwriter Arianna Neikrug makes her grander introduction to the music world with the August 24, 2018 release of Changes on Concord Jazz. Listen to Spring Can Really Hang You Up The Most below!

Produced by the Grammy-winning pianist and arranger Laurence Hobgood, Changes displays Neikrug's gift for interpreting tunes from the Great American Songbook and more recent pop and R&B classics from the '70s. The disc also contains two originals that reveal some of Neikrug's journey from her hometown of Los Angeles to New York City, where she argues she truly belongs.

About the track, Arianna states: "Spring Can Really Hang You Up The Most" is one of my favorite arrangements on this album particularly because the (new) harmonic nature is so encapsulating and reflects the lyric so accurately and so deeply, thus making the track that much more powerful, intriguing, and emotionally striking. Though I've sung this song for several years now, the newfound connection between harmony, lyric, and strategic arranging that Laurence employs brings out the tune's deceivingly dark nature."
