Cool, hip, sophisticated retro, jazzy, sultry, lush and did I mention cool. Put on your smoking jacket. This is date and martini night music. Melody Gardot is a 23 year old singer-songwriter hailing from Philadelphia. A standout track is #9 My One and Only Thrill. Her take on track #11 Over the Rainbow is Latin-cool....very enjoyable. What a voice. Welcome to Casablanca and play Melody Gardot again Sam.
