Traincha

This is one lady that sings oh so beautifully!  Traincha is the singing sensation from Amsterdam.  She has worked with a lot of jazz artists, and is most popular for her collaboration with Burt Bacharach on a series of albums recreating new twists to his wonderful songs.  I got her album "The Look of Love" on a weekend sale, and I think I stumbled onto a gold mine!  One may argue that it is difficult to step into the shoes of Dionne Warwick, who imprinted Bacharach's songs with her distinct cocky but playful mood--but this young lady has a crystalline voice; her phrasing brings out a pleasant tempo that will make the Bacharach fan proud.  Truly a great find!
