Corinne Bailey Rae
In an era when female R&B singers are often little more than pitch-corrected fashion divas, Corinne Bailey Rae's 2006 debut album was a heartening triumph of vocal chops and genuine soul. The U.K.-born singer/multi-instrumentalist got her start singing in her church choir, but followed the siren song of indie rock and joined the all-female metal band Helen in the mid-1990s. When Helen's album deal fell through, Bailey Rae looked for other avenues of musical expression and, influenced by classic jazz singers, tried her hand at a mellower, more emotive style of singing. By 2005 Bailey Rae had been offered a solo record deal with EMI. The resulting album was an international hit, charting high all over Europe and the U.S.

    It leaves tiny cracks on your heart when you hear her singing "Like A Star". It is so beautiful it almost hurts. The words are simple and truthful. I love her music!

    She is truly a uniquely talented individual, who seems to totally embrace who she is. Her music is in a class by itself!
