Modern day female jazz recommendations

We all know the classics from decades ago. What are your favorite your more contemporary female jazz singers of today?

Living close to Nashville I have the opportunity to see and hear a lot of up and coming artists. Nashville is NOT just country music by a long shot.

I'll start with Diana Krall....

Lyn Stanley's "Lost in Romance" is quite a gem to behold. Gives me goosebumps every time I spin it.

Carmen Gomes on youtube.
Finally there are some youtube examples from the Carmen Gomes
Sound Liaison downloads, not as good as the "real thing" but they do give a good impression of these amazingly well recorded albums.

Sarah Vaughn. Not new I know ... just timeless.

One thing different about Kat Edmondsonis that she sometimes takes an old standard and does it with a modern approach, then will take a "more recent" (post-50's) pop tune and do it like an old standard. It works for me, YMMV.
