Canadian alt-country songbird Lindi Ortega has a quivering voice that harks back to another era, even as her music keeps her squarely placed in the present. Ortega's 2001 debut, The Taste of Forbidden Fruit, was more cabaret than country, highlighting her flair for the dramatic. That served her well on its followup, Fall From Grace, and a trio of albums released afterward. Ortega is a classic country gal with timeless appeal.
