Rachael Price, of 'Lake Street Drive':
 



 
 
I'll even venture that there's almost a touch of Amy Winehouse about her voice...
 
 
Edit:  oops - just noticed Dosley01 posted Rachael a while back

That was me - it was brought to my attention by a fellow visitor at the Bristol Hi-Fi Show, a few weeks ago. You know when you go to a demo room and ask them to play such-&-such-a-track from the CD you're clutching in your sweaty hands, and the demonstrator starts secretly hyperventilating coz he's scared it'll make his system sound bad in front of a room full of hi-fi nerds

, well... it was one of those moments, and I just happened to be sat in one of the listening chairs at the time

Thanks again :)  Irrelevant, but can you remember the system you heard it on?  I'm usually hearing it on my modest Clip Zip / UE900 rig, and it sounds wonderful with a bit of smiley-face EQ

It was the Elac Loudspeakers room - the electronics was the Italian-made 'Norma' branded gear.  Sounded very nice indeed.
