Madeline Peyroux- The Kind You Can't Afford

Madeline Peyroux, I first discovered this chick when my friend Chuck showed me her cover of Elliott Smith's "Between the Bars". A good Elliott Smith cover is pretty much a set of keys to my heart, especially since most of them are so sub-par its offensive. Anyways, never really delved deeper into her music until a few months later when I was on line at Starbucks and saw her name on the "Pick of the Week" card. Got to work that day and instantly added this song my to Spotify queue, I've been pretty much hooked ever since.

Madeline Peyroux is a singer, songwriter and guitarist from Athens, Georgia*. Although she has been performing since she was 15 years old, she has kept a relatively low profile. Her music is a funky jazz blues mix. It's that kind of easy listening that is good for first thing when you wake up in the morning.

*Unrelated fun fact for Real Housewives fans, Athens is also where both Nene Leakes & Phaedra Parks grew up.

Happy Listening :)
