Just discovered vvvery recently this American singer songwritter and literally been blow away. I actually discovered when they played her song Duet (which is a duet with Ray Lamontagne) on Brothers & Sisters. She's got a 2008 CD called ELEPHANTS... TEETH SINKING INTO HEART, which is a 2-part album, the first with kinda slow sad depressing songs (me loooooves it) and a second part more Fiona Apple-esque (not yet into it). So great voice, great piano player, great songs, great looks she cannot do wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so a few of my favs, like DUET: it.youtube.com/watch?v=GTrrNuco38oELEPHANTS: it.youtube.com/watch?v=Oj-mV8SaOoUTHE REASON WHY: it.youtube.com/watch?v=xuQvja_t1FYThis is her official site, lots of info & pics: www.rachaelyamagata.com/just seen she's doing some EU dates later this Spring... might check it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just saw Rachael live this Monday @ London !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!and was completely blown away!!!!!!!!!!!! She played at this tiny place, maybe 200 people, and I was just in front of her, like 20cm away... she was amazing, great stage presence, great voice, funny, chatty, telling stories or silly anecdotes... She played most of the new album and a couple of oldies (The Reason Why, Be Be Your Love), funny she joked she only sold 3 copies of album#1 in the UK, still got chills everytime I think of the show, so amazing!!!!!! and we met her after the show and she was super nice, talked to her, she signed my CD Great night!!!! a couple of really nice clips: www.youtube.com/watch?v=01avUvSxjv4&feature=relatedwww.youtube.com/watch?v=gPZDXCdxWzU&feature=related
