I have to give props to my sister, Jesika, for introducing me to the jazzy, mellow sounds of Melody Gardot. I can already tell you, World, that during this month of celebration of the music I love, Ms. Gardot will be a frequent character. Get used to her. She has a sound that reminds of Norah Jones and Diana Krall, but is also reminiscent of Ella Fitzgerald and Nina Symone, yet she has a sound that is completely her own.
The story on how she first got into music is fascinating, and I encourage you to check it out at the following link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melody_Gardot
"...Thus grew the tale of Wonderland: Thus slowly one by one, it's quaint events were hammered out- and now the tale is done...the dream child moving through a land of wonders wild and new, In friendly chat with bird
or beast-and half believe it true..." -Lewis Carroll
