Female Vocalist like Diana Krall, Jacintha.


Fellow Audiogoners,

Please give me suggestions to female vocalists in the similar styles as Diana Krall, Jacintha, Holly Cole (when she sings slower songs) , Karen Carpenter and Patricia Barber (when she does slower songs). Someone that does not have a deep a voice. I have tried Nora Jones but I do not like the heavy blues influence. I can live with Alison Krause occasionally due to country beat.

I listen to classical most of the time but am beginning to enjoy some light jazz female vocals.

Thanks.

With respect to today's jazz vocalists, I agree wholeheartedly with the Tierney Sutton recommendation. Paula West is another, but her self-produced CDs are hard to find, although I've seen "Temptation" on amazon in the past. I also like Christine Tobin a lot, but her CDs are not available in the US, although I've bought two through amazon.co.uk. Tobin is more in the Patricia Barber mold, but perhaps more eclectic than Barber.

Stacey Kent and Diana Krall just don't do it for me...sorry.
