...conspicuous gift that marks many an up-and-comer: the knack for rising to an occasion. She first drew note last summer at the Montreal Jazz Festival, where, using the tug of her bluesy, mahogany-grained voice, she parlayed a handful of jaunty Nat King Cole Trio tunes into a set of languid, open-hearted meditations with unexpected emotional impact. Accompanying herself on piano, she also showed that she knows how to swing--pounding out driving, rock-solid rhythms with her trio; when she soloed, she created patterns of brilliant, light-fingered notes that evoked Cole's easy, vibrant style...

Normally, long-term hibernation isn't healthy for pop musicians. But who says only movie...
