Madeleine Peyroux
Two posts in one month for me is pretty unheard of, much less two in one day. Well, just like Bryan and his music and I and my music about food, here comes a binge of posts. This one is about some light jazz/blues that will calm you down after hazarding the wreckage known as the shopping mall. Don't come home until you get that Wii at a cut rate price, but once you're home, check out Madeleine Peyroux. She's got a sweet, smooth voice and a great ear for good music. She's certainly been around for a while, putting out here first disc in 1996, at the ripe age of 22. She's had a few more out since then and the 2004 release, Careless Love, has me looking for more. Get a load of these two tracks, then check out some new stuff at her website.
Madeleine Peyroux - Don't Wait Too Long: she covers a lot of songs, but this is an original, besides her voice, I like the organ
Madeleine Peyroux - You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go: a masterfully covered Bob Dylan tune
Buy it here.

never heard of her, loved it
thank you
Nice stuff...definitely digging on the Dylan cover.
Wasn't the first song in a LEvi's commercial or something? It sounds awfully familiar.
It does sound familiar, so I thought it was a cover, but its one of her few originals on the disc.
Dockers commercial... guy runs off of train to go get girl... come on, you two! :)
Check out Maria Muldaur's version of "You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go" ... it's as good or better! Dylan writes good songs, but Madeleine and Maria make them sound great!
