If feeling content sounded like something, that something would be the 29-yeard old Lizz Wright.

Luckily for us she avoided the R&B money and fame trap and chose to follow a slightly jazzy, bluesy, soul path. Whoohoo!

Her voice is deep and smooth and some critics compare her to Des’ree. The music is sparse and acoustic and the production values on ‘The Orchard’ high. Listen out for two covers, Ike and Tina Turner’s ‘I idolize you’ and Led Zeppelin’s ‘Thank you’.

The thank you notes clinched the deal for me. It reads: “Thank you Grandma and Pa for Saturday drives in the country.”
