What are you waiting for? Tickets are limited so don't delay. Here is the description from the UCLA Live Website:
"Peyroux’s bittersweet, brokenhearted alto earned her comparisons to the late Billie Holiday and Patsy Cline. Born in Georgia and raised in Paris and New York, the young singer, guitarist and songwriter fell in love with French culture on the streets of Paris, and sang jazz and blues with a touring band. An original interpreter of songs from earlier eras, Peyroux channels vintage jazz and blues with chilling accuracy. Her 2004 release, Careless Love, is a seamless blend of acoustic blues, country ballads, torch songs and pop, featuring songs by an array of artists including W. C. Handy, Bob Dylan, Hank Williams, Leonard Cohen, Elliott Smith and Edith Piaf. Peyroux’s concert will include songs from her new album, Half the Perfect World."
