Belleruche

Unfortunately I can’t give you an audio sample of the band I was obsessively playing during the recent holidays, as the only copies I have aren’t in mp3 format, but here’s a set of links:

Belleruche, a pretty new British band, terms themselves “Turntable Soul Music,” which is pretty accurate.  The singer has a terribly sexy voice in the Ella Fitzgerald smoky, gravelly tradition, and the supporting music has a downtempo DJ / Jazz Groove / Trip Hop quality that pulls in some big band samples.  Veering sometimes into the Portishead arena, they have my heart.
