Norah Jones was in Clearwater, Florida last night as she serenaded a sold out Ruth Eckerd Hall on March 7, 2017. Here's an excerpt from our review of the show:
At this point, Jones could tour on her hits alone, but Lord knows she likely won’t. Despite a career that boasts six solo LPs and a canon of quality songs, Jones still has so much to say and so much soul left to give (you should have seen the way she slinked around the piano while singing “Tragedy” from Day Breaks). She might deserve a band that pushes her a little harder, but there’s no doubt she’ll keep tinkering and find the right formula for her and whatever sound she’s chasing. Jones’s place in history alongside the great jazz singers will always be there, but for now she is a talent who might be entering her prime. We’re all just lucky enough to be able to see it in person once in a blue moon.
