[magicjuan]

You mean Dorsté Sprinkfeelt?

 

[Littlesue]

Jessica Pratt

I haven't listened to Heather Nova for ages. I used to really like her, saw her live a couple of times back in the '90s. Went for a drink with her once, we had a mutual friend at the time. She was really nice. I'm gonna stick Glow Stars or Oyster on this evening I think.

Glow Stars is on now! Thanks for the reminder.

Nanna Bryndís Hilmarsdóttir

This is one of her solo songs. She is also a member of 'Of Monsters and Men'

 

[Littlesue]

It's so good!! Glad someone else has seen it. I lost my dad a few months ago and one thing he did was make sure my sister and I had good taste in music...

Those Daryl house sessions looked like a Musicians dream, his backing band the best and his guests all seem to have much fun, I was actually watching one earlier, the one with Booker T, drumming on this track sublime

 

[Gwladys St. Glory]

Her style can be very polarizing but, technically, Lisa Gerrard of Dead Can Dance.

 

[Littlesue]

Agree with a lot of those mentioned and would add in Beverley Knight

Great voice although can be a bit shouty at times

 

[Blue 1]

Glow Stars is on now! Thanks for the reminder.

I decided to go for one of her records I hadn't heard in the end - got "Storm" on. It's a belter.

Liz Fraser, greatest ever, plus Caroline Crawley, Harriet Wheeler, Dolores O'Riordan, Louise Rutowski, Mama Cass, and at the moment none has a better voice than Kennedy Ashlyn of SRSQ/Them Are Us Too.
Always been.a sucker for the female voice.

Mama Cass
Harriet Wheeler
Tracyanne Campbell
Martha Reeves

I like or love just about every singer mentioned in this thread, but there's a place in my heart that will always belong to Harriet's voice. She evokes a very pure form of love.

I can remember you distraught when Corbyn got defeated, stop fetching your current affairs on this thread please - you Starmerite you

 

[longers]

Bjork, technicaly brilliant but also genuinely unique

 

[Alanbileysfeathercut]

Guilty pleasure...
Barbara Dickson.

 

[Gwladys St. Glory]

Bjork, technicaly brilliant but also genuinely unique

You know you love it when he accent makes her purr like a little kitten...probably talking about myself but, yeah.

 

[RufusCat]

Sonja Kristina from Curved Air and Annie Haslam from Renaissance - I saw them both on a double bill a few years back.

Had forgotten about Sonia Kristina and Curved Air - excellent!
