Hey, As a newbie to the frum world I tend to get quite enthusiastic about most things torah and even halacha... however I had a huge issue with women's only music in that it was, generally, not so good, who I am kidding, gigs left me tearful as 'heartfelt' and 'moving' left me running screaming from the shows I'd been cajouled into attending with my sem friends and Jlem buddies. Until one night when, quite unsuspectingly, I found a singer who can actually sing! Don't take my word for it, ask anyone there, no-one spoke a word from her first note to her last. Delia Spiers (now Bueno de Mesquita, she got married in Nov, mazal tov!) is a BT (unsuprisingly) from the UK who once trod the boards of Jazz clubs and acoustic venues singing with her unique blend of pure innocence, unnerving honesty and raw emotion. Ok, I read that on a review online, except it's true! I would love to hear from others who've seen her and those who have yet to, she's seriously great, amazing actually. The pixie haired songstress can be heard here: http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/delia... where her vocal only album is available to buy... MP3 only as she sold out of the hard copies last year! also try: http://www.myspace.com/kolisha...http://www.myspace.com/deliasp... and Itunes :) ooh, and facebook of course! Delia Bueno de Mesquita. ez peeps, let me know what you think! Sara G
