Adele
Take a music bath once or twice a week for a few seasons. You will find it is to the soul what a water bath is to the body. ~Oliver Wendell Holmes
I added a new routine to my weekly goal schedule called “Music Monday”. Music Monday is the day I set aside 30 minutes or more to discover new music, listen to old music or write some new music of my own. Today, I kicked it off with “Adele”.
About Adele: British soul-pop chanteuse Adele (nee Adele Laurie Blue Adkins) is a stunning young talent with a huge voice. After she recorded a few songs, a friend set up a MySpace page for her in early 2005; record execs discovered her there in their hunt for the “next Lily Allen.” After signing to XL, she suffered from a terribly ill-timed case of writer’s block — that is until she fell in and out of love. A breakup opened the floodgates of emotion and creativity, resulting in her debut album 19. Inspired by great soul dames like Etta James and Billie Holiday and other singers such as Bjork, Jeff Buckley, Dusty Springfield and Jill Scott, Adele’s sense of staggering, heartbreaking honesty and artistry are evidence of her superwoman resilience and everywoman experiences.- ABRUNO
