The Blue Room sees Madeleine and longtime collaborator/legendary producer Larry Klein re-examine Ray Charles' classic, and one of his most controversial albums, Modern Sounds In Country And Western Music.
Praised by Paste for her 'impeccable taste in material,' The New York Times spotlights Madeleine's vocals for 'its powerful echoes of Bessie Smith and Billie Holiday' adding 'she's refined a style that blends elements of jazz, folk and blues into a delicate quasi-30's and -40's period sound that is sophisticated.' NPR adds, 'there's something thoroughly modern in Peyroux's sexy, sultry delivery.'
