Immediately, Peyroux caught the attention of the music world, drawing comparisons to one of the greatest jazz vocalists in history, Billie Holiday. Yet, amid a whirlwind of buzz and critical acclaim, the young artist withdrew from the spotlight. A native of Athens, Georgia, Peyroux grew up in New York and California. [1] [2] In interviews, she has called her parents "hippies" and "eccentric educators" who helped her pursue a career in music. [3] As a child, she listened to her father's old records and learned to play her mother's ukulele. [4] Madeleine Peyroux (born April 18, 1974) is an American jazz singer and songwriter who began her career as a teenager on the streets of Paris. She sang vintage jazz and blues songs before finding mainstream success in 2004 when her album Careless Love sold half a million copies. In 2004, the release of Peyroux's planned second album was delayed because of her vocal problems. [12] These were attributed to over-use of her voice as a result of intensive touring. [13] After discovering a cyst on her vocal cords, she needed surgery, and attempted to recover by re-training her voice. [12] She stated that it took years to rebuild her voice, and she considered giving up singing. [13]

By 2004, her way of conveying confessional expression was truly her own. She had developed an updated rhythmic pliability and an emotional depth that could explore the complexities lying beneath the surface of the songs.” FILE: 01 - Madeleine Peyroux - Dance Me To The End Of Love (Live At Festival de Jazz de Vitoria-Gasteiz _ 2005).flacHaller, Val (March 20, 2013).

But her expressive reach also embraced songs made famous by Bessie Smith (“Don’t Cry Baby”), Billie Holiday (“No More,” “I’ll Look Around”), and Josephine Baker (“J’ai Deux Amours”). The record also showcased the original song “Don’t Wait Too Long,” co-written by Jesse Harris, known for his work with Norah Jones and Melody Gardot, which became her signature hit. All About Jazz hailed Careless Love as “a moody, haunting masterpiece” and “a whale of a record. Peyroux’s voice is amazing — grainy, intimate, and unaffected.” No Depression noted that “a more self-defined Peyroux sound emerges — smooth, circling around midrange notes, energized, and built on her own smart reading of the lyric, not anyone else’s patterns.” The Guardian praised its “classily produced and coolly graceful set,” as well as its “intelligent choice of terrific songs.”Craig Street, [10] and recorded with Christopher Bruce, Charley Drayton, Meshell Ndegeocello, Marc Ribot, [11] Jenny Scheinman, and Allen Toussaint.

Of the newly-available live recording in Spain, Peyroux adds: “You can hear how much fun we’re having, and the people sound really happy. I think I was pretty nervous, playing in such a prestigious festival in one of these daunting, historic-looking places that was so large. At the time, a venue holding 2000 was a lot for me.”

Born in Athens, GA to bohemian parents, Peyroux spent her teenage years in Paris, where she found herself entranced by the city’s busking musicians. By 15, the precocious singer was performing alongside them in the city’s Latin Quarter and soon dropped out of high school to tour Europe full-time. When she returned to the States in her 20s, Peyroux settled in New York, where she was discovered — and promptly signed — by Atlantic Records’ Yves Beauvais, who co-produced her 1996 debut, Dreamland.FILE: 07 - Madeleine Peyroux - Walking After Midnight (Live At Festival de Jazz de Vitoria-Gasteiz _ 2005).flac With the release of her long awaited follow-up album, Careless Love, Peyroux's potential as an artist is truly realized. Her smoky voice and knowing delivery make each song her own, whether she's singing vintage tunes by W.C. Handy and Hank Williams, or contemporary songs by Leonard Cohen and Elliott Smith. Producer Larry Klein (Joni Mitchell, Shawn Colvin) weaves strands of acoustic blues, country ballads, classic jazz, torch songs and pop into a vibrant fabric that is both timeless and thoroughly up to date, with Peyroux's arresting vocals always front and center.
