That young lady has the most exquisite voice. Spine-tingling.

Thanks for sharing this!
Thom’s issues with Creep are well documented but they do still play it, albeit fairly sparingly. In fact he released a new version of it only a few months ago. It’s pretty dark though!

Yes, she definitely has a beautiful voice, and her baroque take on “Creep” is quite fitting for the song track imo. Not sure when this video was recorded, but I believe she’s in her late twenties now and a professional singer. Glad you enjoyed it too.

My two favorites, Sorry I made to responses.

This meets Chris Layer the OP’s criteria for inclusion here.

One of my top ten albums for 2021 could be placed in this category. This album exemplifies why AMG called Chris Eckman (The Walkabouts), “one of the most underrated U.S. songwriters, a man who can pack a short story into some image-laden lyrics.”
