Madeleine Peyroux - Careless Love
It’s been eight years since Dreamland, the stunning debut that earned the Georgia-born, Paris-raised singer comparisons to Billie Holiday. Now Peyroux (pronounced like the country Peru) is finally back with her second album. Along with distinctive covers of Hank Williams, Bob Dylan, Elliott Smith and Leonard Cohen, she puts her sultry vocals to one tantalizing original, co-written with Norah Jones collaborator Jesse Harris, called “Don’t Wait Too Long.” Hopefully, Peyroux won’t wait as long to record her next.
