EVERY SECOND WAS DELIGHTFUL!! BRAVO
This show opens with Joy Clark (if you are lucky.) Joy Clark just signed with Righteous Babe Records, and I promise you she will be in the spotlight for the rest of her life and then-some. Talk about an old soul who sings with the sweet tea deep tone of the bluesy south, and can make a guitar look like it is working for her while she does it all effortlessly! Hopefully she opens for the show you are attending, wherever you are… if not be sure to check her out! NOW- I just got out of the Madeleine Peyroux show tonight at the Lobero Theatre in Santa Barbara. I used to play her music in the early 2000’a on my top radio show. I am a huge fan of her work. This show was filled with truth, humor, incredible composition and a killer band to boot. Let’s just say I took my partner who was unfamiliar with her work. She said it was one of the best shows she had ever seen/experienced. (This statement is coming from a die hard Austin-living music-loving person.) Even if you had no idea who she was/is her music is timeless because her range, cadence, beat, and wizardry with sound is so enjoyable to listen to. Perfect sized crowd, perfect ticket price point. She said “live concerts will save the world.” After you see this show you will believe that statement. Bravo and thank you! Merci à vous pour un moment incroyable!

Madeline PEYROUX
Sony Hall - New York
Wonderful show from beginning to end. Super venue, very atmospheric. Madeline is a superb musician. Every song was a joy to hear. A great night out.

Madeleine is amazing!
Sony Hall - New York
Madeleine is a brilliant artist and a funny and entertaining person. What a night! Sony Hall, on the other hand, is one of the worst theaters I’ve been to in a while. You can hear bartenders shaking cocktails during the concert, forks and knives being dropped by patrons and the list goes on… disrespectful, at best. Never again.

Not good!
Jimmy’s Jazz and Blues Club - Portsmouth
Our foursome were looking forward to this performance. The pianist was fabulous! The bassist was awesome! The drummer was great. NOT Madeleine Peyroux! She didn’t engage with the audience, had no zip and we all found her singing quite boring! Has she lost her voice?

The voice and the venue
Jimmy’s Jazz and Blues Club - Portsmouth
The Madeleine Peyroux show at Jimmys Jazz club showcased the best of what live music is about. She was amazing, her band exceptional and the venue made it all that much better. Her voice got richer as the evening unfolded. Song after timeless song made fresh by her band and her interpretations. She and her group took us on a musical voyage from Portsmouth to Paris with stops in Georgia and Jersey. It was our first visit to Jimmys Jazz. Wowza! Great place! The sound, the vibe, the service and the menus were all outstanding. Cant wait to go back!

The entire evening was simply divine!
Ponte Vedra Concert Hall - Ponte Vedra Beach
What an intimate and delightful experience being able to see a performer of such talent from three rows away! Ms. Peyroux was in fine form and her fellow musicians didn't miss a beat. My only wish was that they never stopped! Thanks for a great evening!

Peyroux experience
Lillian S. Wells Hall at The Parker - Ft Lauderdale
Wonderful concert. Her voice and music take me to a place I think would be reminiscent of a Parisian dinner venue in the 1940’s.

An 11 out of a possible 10!!!
Lillian S. Wells Hall at The Parker - Ft Lauderdale
We were a bit of an odd couple, me in my late 70's, daughter in her 40's. I'm the Peyroux fan, found her on a CBS Saturday Morning show quite a few years back. As a Piaf and Holiday fan, Madeleine had "that" sound that I love, so I bought a CD and sing along with her while out and about in the car! I was delighted to see her name in the Parker Playhouse lineup and bought two tickets immediately, and told my daughter she was my date. The opening act, an hour, Sophie Hawkins, was a bonus! I never heard of her, but my daughter did, and what a bundle of energy she was, funny, keyboard, guitar, singing, wow! Hawkins alone was worth the price of ticket. Then Madeleine arrived and calmed everyone down with that unique style, range, voice! Her fan club was there and enthusiastically rewarded her after every song. Throughout the two hour show, she got several standing ovations! The musicians were superb and at the end some local guitarist (I missed his name) joined them, and he was a WOW, too. It was a magical night, even though Madeleine didn't sing any of my favorites. I left the theatre relaxed (her music does that), along with her newest fan, my daughter. Kudos to Parker Playhouse, my first visit since they renovated! They kept the ambience we always loved, and did a super job on the lobby entry area. Still has that old charm from the Hepburn/Brynner/Garland days!!
