Ok, remember a few posts back when I featured Ms. Melody Gardot in my "Song of the day" portion? Well, just recently, I came across an article that was featured in my school's website and it focused around Ms. Gardot and one of my professors, Dr. Jermyn, who had a hand in helping her to rehabilitate after an unfortunate accident that happened to her a few years ago. Shortly put, Ms. Gardot was hit by an SUV, which left her in chronic pain and other debilitating sequelae. After exhaustive treatments with drugs, physical therapy, etc. with many doctors, Dr. Jermyn finally suggested that she should restart what she used to do for fun as part of her rehab program, which was playing the piano. Sure enough, it helped her to heal, and in a big way too, since she's now a very accomplished jazz performer and recording artist.
Here's the school link and the Elle link as well. It's called "Composing Melody: The Enigmatic Melody Gardot."
Hope you likes.

Oh that's lovely. I will definitely be listening to her now. Also I know this a bizarre comment but I also love her hair on her cover art.
She does have a very elegant look about her.
