Album Description:
'. . . in a place where Billie Holiday meets Tom Waits . . . has moments that recall pieces of Nina Simone, early Rickie Lee Jones, and even the sophistication of Cole Porter. ' - Business Week
Although there are elements of jazz, blues and folk in her music, it is simultaneously all of those things and none of them. Her engaging songs and sultry controlled vocals possess a timeless quality that places them in the tradition of the great female vocalists on Verve, whose work have also not been confined to any one genre or style

Rating:  - Jazzy Folk As Balm For Your Troubles
Worrisome Heart is the first full length studio CD from Melody Gardot.It is a smoky and mellow mix of jazz and folk that one should enjoy slowly as repetition leads to depth of appreciation and understanding.Melancholy runs deeply through this short collection of songs.While one might expect this from a young artist who survived being hit by a car while riding her bicycle, her torment on Worrisome Heart comes from another, but common, source.Even the song titles themselves suggest that the ...

Disabled in a traffic accident when she was 19, the story of how music helped her to deal with cognitive and physical impairment is really inspiring.

Rating:  - Norah Jones meets Madeleine Peyroux meets Eva Cassidy
I am really enjoying this new album & artist.Very mellow and smoky like Norah Jones -- but I definitely get moments of Madeleine Peyroux and the occasional Eva Cassidy, as well.(All top-notch singers in my book!)I look forward to seeing more from this artist in the future!
Rating: - Excellent young Jazz singer/songwriter
Purely by accident I discovered Melody's album and I am so glad I did!!!
I certainly hope she has a great career in music ahead of her!!!
This album has such a cool sound and once I start listening I just keep playing it over and over.Considering what she went through in her life(ie the Bike crash) it is amazing that she has recovered to produce this album!!!
Cheers!!!
Rating: - "Music Can Do Wonders For Your Spirit"
Melody Gardot "needs a hand with her worrisome heart." And according to her, "she gravitates towards soothing music, often genres that are soft and somewhat unassuming." She further states that "music can do wonders for your spirit especially when it's the kind that calms you down."
About five years ago, Melody Gardot was slammed into by the front end of a jeep that left her bedridden and disabled. As a result, she had turned her recuperating time into something creative and productive ... Read More
