[Madeleine Peyroux] possesses a melancholy air that traces back to Edith Piaf and Billie Holiday.

The return of the recluse
The last time Peyroux played Toronto, she appeared at a small downtown club. Tomorrow, the jazzy, bluesy, 32-year-old chanteuse who sounds far more like Billie Holiday than Jones, is taking the stage at a far more prestigious venue: Massey Hall. In a recent interview, Peyroux - she's now based in Brooklyn, N.Y., after living many years abroad - said she enjoys touring the United States more than she once did. "In a way, American audiences are more challenging than European. I'm playing American music back to Americans. They don't generally have the same passion for it, but it's beautiful and because of the social content, there's a potentially deeper understanding.""
