Product Description

Album Description

At twenty-two, singer-songwriter Melody Gardot has a hauntingly beautiful voice that can melt event the hardest of hearts. Drenched in a sublime vapour of mellow blues, eclectic folk and above all jazz, Worrisome Heart is a ten-track collection of original songs co-produced by Melody Gardot and Grammy Award winning producer Glenn Barratt. With a superb narrative, nuanced phrasing and skillfully constructed arrangements, this is a rare and unique album.

Echoes of Billie Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald belie her jazz heritage, whilst her lyrics communicate a wise, determined and occasionally lighthearted take on life. Backed by the some of the finest musicians on the American jazz scene, Melody has already drawn rave reviews across the USA, and she is now set to take the UK by storm. Please welcome the next, and brightest, jazz star of the twenty first century.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Superb Piece of Work, 18 Oct 2007
By William Kates "Music and More at billsmusicbl... (Philadelphia, PA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The independent stateside release of Worrisome Heart is the best record I've heard in many a year. Now that she's signed to Universal, listeners worldwide now have the opportunity to enjoy it too. With a great mix of jazz, folk, and singer-songwriter styles, and spot-on perfect production by Glenn Barratt and Melody, what really makes this disc special is the exquisitely beautiful songwriting. This is her first full length recording and it's just an amazingly superb piece of work. Go see her sing live if you get the chance.

3.0 out of 5 stars Lovely!, 29 April 2008
By H. Dennison "bookworm" (UK) - See all my reviews

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Programme (What's this?)
I'm not usually a fan of this kind of music, but the soft jazzy sounds combined with Melody's mellow voice made me simply sit back and relax with a glass of wine! Great background music for dinner parties, or to add ambience to an evening in with a loved one...without wanting to push this album into a pile of cliches, it does - for me - precisely what jazz should do. It's not inspiring but nor is it mundane. Just lovely.

3.0 out of 5 stars ...s'arite..., 4 April 2008
By Mr. H "the-rocker.co.uk" (Embra) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)      
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Programme (What's this?)
Ms Gardot has been in receipt of acres of press coverage in the more worthy areas of the media recently, what with the remarkable back story. You know the one. Dreadful accident, records music as means of therapy, everyone goes "wow", record deal etc. And it is a remarkable back story. But that doesn't make for a remarkable CD.

Don't get me wrong, "Worrisome Heart" is a good album, with its mixture of lite jazz and blues, and Philadelphian singer / songwriter Melody Gardot has a very listenable voice. But there isn't anything new going on here. Everyone will say it, but it's straight of Norah Jones 101, with an optional module in Nellie McKay. Again, there is nothing wrong with that, and on the best material here - 'Worrisome Heart', 'Some Lessons', 'Sweet Memory', you can't help but get caught up in the music.

The music itself is very simple and acoustic, something that works well, allowing Ms Gardot to express herself vocally without being overwhelmed, a trait best demonstrated on the song that could actually make her name, the truly beautiful 'Love Me Like a River Does'. As she says herself, ""I gravitate towards soothing music, often genres that are soft and somewhat unassuming. Music can do wonders for your spirit especially when it's the kind that calms you". And she's hit that mark perfectly.

It's a very promising start, but there's a way to go, before she takes her place at the top of the pile.
