'That's The Way It Is' is Clare Teal's debut album on CANDID.

Clare Teal is an exciting new talent on the jazz scene, a singer with intense warmth and passion whose delicate phrasing and heartfelt interpretation of lyrics are the very essence of her music. The tunes Clare selected for the album indeed mirror her tastes in music ranging from her dynamic originals 'Messin' with Fire' and 'Heber' to the sophisticated ballad artistry of 'You're My Thrill' and 'Ill Wind'.
