Holy smoke. One of the DJs at Portland's Jazz station KMHD ranks her album "My One And Only Thrill" as one of the best for 2009. Just listened to some cuts on Amazon, and I'm blown away.
Interesting story on how she suffered severe brain damage and memory/speech problems after being hit by a car while riding a bicycle. Music, humming, and singing helped her learn to communicate again.
I'm with Bryan. She's certainly very good, but I think there's lots of newer female jazz vocalists in her company. If you haven't heard her, Valerie Joyce records nice music on Chesky, with the sound quality typical of that house. People may also like Erin Bode, a sweet voice who would benefit from a stronger band. John
