I think the world will be hearing of this lady. Apparent;y Dayna Kurtz is already known in parts of Europe but not so across the pond. Lots of her material on You/Tube. I wish her the best.

From Wikipedia:

Dayna Kurtz is an American singer/songwriter from New Jersey. Her music is described as a blend of Jazz, Folk and Pop. Critic James Reed of the Boston Globed wrote in a review of Beautiful Yesterday that "there's no logical reason why singer-songwriter Dayna Kurtz is not a full-blown star".[1]

This may be off the wall, but:
Imagine her singing Bruce M's "I Can See You Now".
Then imagine Bruce singing her "Invocation" that Beer linked.
There has to be some kind of...sensibility? ...in common.

Another Black Feather is one of my favourite albums of recent years. The title track and the song Venezuela are deliriously wonderful.
