Modern day female jazz recommendations


We all know the classics from decades ago. What are your favorite your more contemporary female jazz singers of today?

Living close to Nashville I have the opportunity to see and hear a lot of up and coming artists. Nashville is NOT just country music by a long shot.

I'll start with Diana Krall....

I don't know if you would call this jazz, some Bossa Nova in there and lots of big band but the guy is brilliant - Michael Bubl'e. Was never into this type of music until I heard one of his CDs, now I have them all......in the past month!!
Frank Sinatra style with a more intimate and romantic edge and lovely recordings. If you want to experiment don't get any live stuff (can't remember the name of my "live" CD). A lot more talent than Diana Krall and a bit more life to his music too. Interested to see if any of you are familiar.
