In praise of Corinne Bailey Rae...

I heard this woman’s music for the first time a couple of weeks ago while shopping for books at Barnes & Noble. It was playing on their sound system and after inquiring as to who it was I bought a copy of her CD as a birthday present for a friend. After hearing it a couple times at my friend’s place, I picked up a copy for myself and have listened to little else since.

Anyway, she’s a new singer/songwriter from England and is just breaking into the bigtime. I looked around on Youtube and found a couple of videos of her performing songs from her new CD. I thought I’d post info about her here in hopes of expanding her fan base, as I hope bigtime that this woman has a long-lived career.

For anyone interested, a video of her performing one of my favorite songs from the new CD can be found here.
