As a jazz fan, I often worry about whether the genre will die out. That's why I'm always happy to stumble across "youngsters" with obvious talent and dedication carrying on the tradition. Check out Melody Gardot, 22 years old. (Just let it roll after you click on the link). She is for real, but what I really like are the musicians behind her. They are obvious jazz-heads who, along with her, will carry on. It may not be Ella, Nina, or Nancy, but it sure as hell beats Brittney!
Oh, and then after you listen to a couple of her tracks, check out her bio. It's an amazing, uplifting story. Please check it out.
Ciao,
