Trixie Whitley
Trixie Whitley emerged as the singer in Daniel Lanois' Black Dub project a few years back and her voice immediately stood out as a versatile, emotional and powerful instrument. Here it's given all the space and time it needs and for the most part Whitley nails it both vocally and as a songwriter. Pieces, in particular, is a classic slice of jazz and blues-drenched soul music, her voice straining and cracking with its delivery. She seamlessly blends genres such as electronica and R&B, making this a post-modern take on traditional musical forms showcasing a truly magical voice.
