What is the name of Lady Gaga's jazz album with Tony Bennett?
Answer
"Cheek to Cheek"
What is the name of Lady Gaga’s jazz album with Tony Bennett? It is “Cheek to Cheek.” Released in 2014, the album is the duo’s first collaborative studio record and features their interpretations of standards from the Great American Songbook.
The project grew from Gaga and Bennett’s earlier connection. They first met at a Robin Hood Foundation gala in 2011, then recorded “The Lady Is a Tramp” for Bennett’s album “Duets II.” Their successful collaboration led them to plan a full jazz album, allowing Gaga to move away from the contemporary dance-pop sound associated with much of her early career.
“Cheek to Cheek” includes songs by composers such as George Gershwin, Cole Porter, Jerome Kern, and Irving Berlin. It was released on September 19, 2014, and won the Grammy Award for Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album. The pair later reunited for “Love for Sale,” released in 2021, but “Cheek to Cheek” is the title of their first jazz collaboration.
