Let's walk

"On her previous outings, she recorded covers of jazz and Great American Songbook standards and works of contemporary songwriters. While she's often co-written songs with her collaborators, Let's Walk is entirely composed of her written originals, which offer excellent lyrics as she continues to mine jazz, blues, and folk ... While Peyroux expertly commands the styles and forms she always has, her wonderful songwriting elevates 'Let's Walk' to an entirely different level. Essential".

"A haunting meditation on the state of America in the age of Trumpery ("How I Wish") is the highlight, preceding the title track's rousing gospel call to civil rights action. In contrast, she also documents the intimate and personal ("Nothing Personal") ... The mix of jazz, folk, gospel and blues, the languorous slur of her voice, the woody instrumental textures and unhurried pace are all familiar".
