Editorial Review: Album Description: ". . . in a place where Billie Holiday meets Tom Waits . . . has moments that recall pieces of Nina Simone, early Rickie Lee Jones, and even the sophistication of Cole Porter. " - Business Week Although there are elements of jazz, blues and folk in her music, it is simultaneously all of those things and none of them. Her engaging songs and sultry controlled vocals possess a timeless quality that places them in the tradition of the great female vocalists on Verve, whose work have also not been confined to any one genre or style Customer Reviews

 Rating: - Outstanding musicI sampled Melody's music on itunes and bought it here. Her music is very moody and soulful. It reminded me so much of Norah Jones whom I love very much. After I bought one for myself, I thought of a friend and bought one for her a few days later. Check out Melody's music. I hope you find it as enjoyable to listen to as I. Rating: - wowThis might be one the best set of tracks I've listened to this year. The performance and production are as polished and clean as you could hope for, and the delivery so genuine and soulful you can almost smell the smoke and martinis.

Drenched in a sublime vapour of mellow blues, eclectic folk and above all jazz, 'Worrisome Heart' is a ten-track collection of original songs co-produced by Melody Gardot and Grammy Award winning producer Glenn Barratt. With a superb narrative, nuanced phrasing and skillfully constructed arrangements, this is a rare and unique album. Echoes of Billie Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald belie her jazz heritage, whilst the lyrics communicate a wise, determined and occasionally lighthearted take on life. What's more, these fragile tales of love are all self-penned. Backed by the some of the ... Read More: Rating: - SexyI bought this CD based on the strong buzz that it has been receiving. That buzz turns out to be well-deserved. This CD is as good as everyone says. Gardot is a highly effective singer and a superb writer. In ways that I did not anticipate, this turns out to be quite a sexy CD. Highly recommended for people interested in intelligent singing and writing. The Norah Jones, Madeleine Peyroux, Diana Krall connection mentioned by others rings true to my ear. Also recommended: April Barrows. |
