Ledisi is in the top tier of postmillennial singers with a highly acclaimed catalog of music that combines traditional R&B and jazz with modern finesse. This New Orleans native has been a successful independent artist for years now and has a couple of well-regarded albums under her belt. One of her latest songs that has caught my attention, and a timely title. This is from her upcoming" For Dinah" album... her deeply close tribute to the great Dinah Washington.
She makes me melt.
ReplyDeleteA Great Voice from Louisiana. Must be the heat and humidity that produces a Voice like this. Thanks for posting and sharing. Makes me proud of Louisiana.
ReplyDeleteHave not heard of her, but I can tell you she left me speechless. I had to listen twice. That voice is incredible.
ReplyDeleteSo wonderful. I could listen to her all day.
ReplyDeleteHaven't heard of her before, so thanks for the intro to her music!
ReplyDeleteI see you're back to advertising Citroens. The only time I was ever in one was when I stayed with a family who lived in the Languedoc 55+ years ago. They had a Citroen.
ReplyDeleteBefore I was born, my paternal grandfather bought on from a man who moved from France. A white one like the one above. I would have LOVED to have it, but my grandmother ended up selling it to a guy who collected antique cars. I always LOVED their style and silhouette. And one of the best suspension systems ever in a car.
DeleteShe's another underrated artist, this song is soul. But at the same time, I like when they are not to well known.... their talent stay more natural and true.
ReplyDeleteIt's impossible not to fall in love with Ledisi. The sound of her voice is like an angelic symphony.
ReplyDeleteOh my Golly Gosh she is amazing and I love her voice.
ReplyDeleteI can hear elements of Dinah Washington and other of the greats in her voice and vocal style but that is a good thing. Her voice is 100% her own. She is Fab U Lous.
