Female Vocalist like Diana Krall, Jacintha.

Fellow Audiogoners,

Please give me suggestions to female vocalists in the similar styles as Diana Krall, Jacintha, Holly Cole (when she sings slower songs) , Karen Carpenter and Patricia Barber (when she does slower songs). Someone that does not have a deep a voice. I have tried Nora Jones but I do not like the heavy blues influence. I can live with Alison Krause occasionally due to country beat.

I listen to classical most of the time but am beginning to enjoy some light jazz female vocals.

Thanks.

Aaron

I think Diana Krall is way overrated personally. I really enjoy Joni Mitchell's 2000 release, Both Sides Now.

I'm also a big Dinah Washington fan - also try Abbey Lincoln.

Melissa Errico. While simply browsing at my local Tower Records, I picked up this artist's cd "Blue Like That" without any knowledge of her. It turned out to be a very pleasant surprise and quite enjoyable. Good recording too.

Here's another vote for Lizz Wright. Just discovered she's on Joe Sample's outsiding CD the The Pecan Tree.
