Madeleine Peyroux

Much like songbird Edith Piaf, Madeleine Peyroux spent her teenage years busking the busy streets of Paris. At 16, Peyroux joined the Lost Wandering Blues and Jazz Band with whom she toured the streets of Europe. In 1991 the band travelled to New York and in 1996 her breakthrough album Dreamland was released, selling 200,000 copies, with critics comparing Peyroux’s dusky voice to Billie Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald. 30 years later, Peyroux is the proud curator of nine beguiling albums. The prolific musician is now embarking on a world tour around the re-release of her acclaimed 2004 album, Careless Love.
