Does anyone know a modern sort of Billy Holiday or Halliday as she's sometimes spelt (i think)? Like a sorta really good smooth jazzy type voice but without all that pre 1950s throat scratchy recording distortions and stuff. And omg, how good is Glee?
It doesnt have to be modern or female. Just that kinda style of music, but without all the throat scratching. Like what they were singing, but with modern day equipment.
Oh, well srsly piracer, if it's modern billie type you're after, I dont think you can get any better than madeleine peyroux. She's *really* similar to billie!
Yea ive got duffy and norah jones, but im a little tired of them. Ella Fiztgerald is great though! thanks for the suggestions!
