Thanks to everyone who has contributed toward this topic/thread I started. It has been more successful than I could imagine. Thanks to all of you and Qobuz I have many new female artists to discover. It’s amazing how many of these artists I’ve never heard of. Via Quobuz I’ve discovered so many.
Favorite Newly Discovered Female Vocalist
Thanks to Qobuz I can endlessly explore new music and artists. I enjoy female vocalists and I’m always searching for new talent whether Pop, Jazz or Classical.
A few I have discovered and very much enjoy:
Laufey: From Iceland and writes very melodic somewhat old school songs
Eva Cassidy: Amazing voice. Best cover of Over The Rainbow I’ve ever heard. Spellbinding and emotional
Diana Panton: Very silky smooth voice. Enjoy anything she sings
Pamela D’Amico: Wonderful Brazilian singer/Guitarist
Kacey Musgraves: Grammy winning artist who spans pop and country. Her song The Architect is a gem She’s been singing for a while but I just found her on a recommendation from my granddaughter
Michelle Simonal: Another wonderful singer from Brazil Love her rendition of the 80s song Some People as well as other covers
Sarah Menescal: Also from Brazil and offers wonderful covers. Especially love her cover of Over My Shoulder
Stacey Kent: What a delicate sweet voice. Especially enjoy her covers of So Nice and The Gentle Rain on the Brazilian Sketches Album
Hope you enjoy these artists as much as I do
Oh although not a singer but a Classical Pianist please check out
Yuja Wang: Phenomenal and well recorded by DG especially her newest
The Vienna Recital

Not so much a recent discovery, but the other day I realized I have almost the entire Julie London catalog and can actually hold forth on the differences between her albums and styles as she aged. I have no idea how this happened. I don't remember how I discovered her in the first place. But I'm glad I did. |
@gkelly +1 on Hurray For The Riff Raff - I fell hard for Alynda Segarra the first time I heard "Look Out Mama" and never looked back. My wife and I just saw the band last Monday in Door County, WI. Really great live. Others: I have been a Joni obsessive for about four decades now, no sign of slowing. Roberta Flack always makes me smile. Sandy Denny, Linda Rondstadt, Iris Dement, k.d. lang, oh jeez I just realized I could go on for quite a while... |
@hifiguy42 Sandy Denny's story always makes me sad. Much like many of her lyrics do. |
