MP3s: Female Vocalists Friday

Posted Fri Jul 11, 2008 4:13pm PDT by Ken Micallef in Better Living Through MP3

Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, Sarah Vaughan, Anita O’Day and Peggy Lee are unparalleled vocalists in my experience. These women created the jazz vocalist template from which today’s new batch of winsome singers--think Erin Bode, Roberta Gambarini, Nnenna Freelon, Lisa Ekdahl, and Julie Hardy--honed their craft. And though jazz enjoys shrinking market share these days, young women espousing complex harmonies and sprightly rhythms are seemingly on the rise. Here’s a few of the new, a few of the best.

Monica Hertzig's jazz piano is really nice to listen to. I hope next time she gets a better cover photo and design for her album art. That font just doesn't match the music at all.
