Take Care Madeleine Peyroux is a jazz singer-songwriter born in Georgia, USA in 1974. Having spent his childhood in California and New York, he moved to Paris with his mother at the age of 13 following his parents' divorce. Two years later, he began working as a street musician in the Latin Quarter, gaining experience by joining jazz groups such as the Riverboat Shuffles. He was discovered by Atlantic Records and debuted in 1996 with "Dreamland." However, he was forced to take an eight-year hiatus due to polyp surgery caused by overuse of his voice. In 2004, his comeback album "Careless Love," released in collaboration with producer Larry Klein, became a huge hit. His 2006 album "Half the Perfect World," featuring guest appearances by KD Lang and Walter Becker, was also a hit, solidifying his position in the music scene. Since then, he has consistently released albums such as "Bare Bones" (2009), "The Blue Room" (2013), and "Anthem" (2018). She reinterprets classic songs by artists such as Leonard Cohen and Ray Charles, creating genre-bending music that has earned her the title of "the next Joni Mitchell."
