Exceptional artists away from the mainstream

I only became aware through advertising on the artist and the album because, unfortunately, in the popular media, only the pop charts and the usual superficial lousy pitching music is played for the target group 12- 22 usually. Katie Melua is because the only exception that comes to mind right away.
Jazz finds itself in D anyway hardly place except in special few radio stations.
The surprise today, however, because of the huge success of "Back to Black", for example by the now sadly deceased Amy Winehouse was a very similar designed jazz album actually. Who liked this, you will love Gregory Porter. I am thrilled that finally written again Someone not only voice, but also with itself songs succeeds. You can tell just yet if one believes what he's singing or whether because the sales figures were more important. He's just authentic and that too very sympathsch and well.
The deduction of points I admit, because in fact the normal album was sonically not as well produced as the Delux and because I had expected a little more, groove tracks. He would bring loose enough Range had sometimes such. B. Cocker a rockier song. The quiet pieces are very beautiful, but it would have in between times also may be 1- 2 crisper songs, I think.
While listening to his pieces, I feel transported back to the Sinatra-Rat Pack era and this casual comforting Vintagecharm is on the rise when one considers that more and more people ect the common hollow-hektsche rattling music ala MTV Viva. are tired of long ago, as shown by the success of the so retro albums by Buble, Robbie Wlliams Swing albums and various other artists.
