Corinne Bailey Rae: NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert
September 19, 2016 by BOB BOILEN It s been six years since Grammywinning singersongwriter Corinne Bailey Rae released her second album, The Sea, so this Tiny Desk concert feels like both a reintroduction and a welcome back. The Sea dealt with the sudden death of her husband, saxophonist Jason Rae; since then, she s married producer Steve Brown, and together they ve made a new record called The Heart Speaks In Whispers. That album has this English singer recording with the likes of Esperanza Spalding, Marcus Miller and members of the band KING. There s real joy in this genredefying performance just great songs and a unique voice. It s a treat for new fans and old friends alike. The Heart Speaks In Whispers is available now: iTunes: Amazon: SET LIST: Paris Nights, New York Mornings Hey, I Won t Break Your Heart The Skies Will Break CREDITS: Producers: B
