Haley Reinhart’s voice literally makes me melt, especially in all the jazzy PMJ covers.

And she’s just so freakin’ adorable it kills me.

I hear ya - im absolutely in love with her :heart_eyes::heart_eyes::heart_eyes:

The lack of Tori Amos in this thread saddens me. Was happy to finally see PJ Harvey make an appearance though.

Feist. Find the song “anti pioneer” turn your headphones up and enjoy perfection.

One of my “major league” favorites, those I take care not to listen to too often so I don’t tire out of liking them: the sweetest Scottish Gaelic voice from the Hebride islands,

Julie Fowlis
Had a couple of tracks put on the “Brave” animation OST, but this is the one I like most, off the same album:

Just wow.
Insta-wishlisted.
She’s got that sexy Alina Baraz timbre going, but a touch more “vocal body” (less breathy).

Couldn’t agree more, Tatiana is the bomb, I hope I get to see her work her magic live :smiley:

Been digging this lately with it’s lazy funky disco beat and Natalies vocals :sunglasses:

Some Nicola Hitchcock vocals from back when Mandalay was still a thing:


Always a welcome surprise when one of her songs comes up on shuffle - with so few of them it’s easy to forget I have them in the collection.

Surprised no one has mentioned(or if they did i missed it) Johnette Napolitano from Concrete Blond.

Thought I was coming here to thank someone for putting me onto Agnes Obel but I guess it was from another place. Recently enjoying exploring the new to me, I guess that makes her my favorite at the moment.

I have the song “Dorian” in my head thanks to hurricane Dorian, heh.

It’s windy right now. We’ll probably just have 60km/h winds here (eastern Canada). Shrugs

Probably gonna make myself unpopular but I have to give a salute to Courtney Love. She’s the ultimate rock bitch and really yells it out with a great gravelly rasp. Big fan of women fronted metal as it’s rare, unexpected and adds some shock value as the ladies aren’t usually known for aggressive vocals and lyrics.

Natalie Merchant is one of my all time favorite. I have to thank JJ Abrams for that. :sweat_smile:

Edit: also, thanks for introducing new artists. I already knew about NIKI, but really enjoy the others.

One of my favorite singers ever is Norah Jones. Not only because of her voice but also because of the quality of all her recordings and the style of music itself.
