Female Vocalist like Diana Krall, Jacintha.

Teirney Sutton ( something cool album ) awesome voice, awesome album.Kind of an unknown but not for long. First song is "Rt66" .

Try Eva Cassidy. She sounds different on every song she sings. Sometimes she comes across like a blues singer. On other tracks she sounds like a chanteuse. Start with "Live from Blues Alley". You'll be hooked!

I agree with Camadeco about Eva Cassidy.

I just picked up my first CD of hers, Time After Time, it is wonderful. I find myself listening to it over and over. Her voice is remarkable. On this CD, she does remakes of "Aint no Sunshine", "Time after Time", "At Last", "The Letter" and "Woodstock" to name a few.

The actual recording is very good too. I cannot wait to get Songbird and Blues Alley. I just read a listing on Ebay, there is a new release of hers coming out, titled something like "American Songs"?

Perhaps it's something you already know about, but there's a long running forum on AudiogoN called "Best female vocals on CD." Lots of suggestions and loads of reviews.

Karla Bonoff. Not a weak cut on any of her albums. These aren't audiophile recordings but plain, good music. Writes most of her own music too. Going to see her live for the first time Friday night in an intimate, nearly perfect acoustical venue. I can't wait.
