Corinne Bailey Rae Essentials

Corinne Bailey Rae Essentials

Don't be fooled by the feathery lightness of Corinne Bailey Rae's delivery: Her breeziness conveys both exquisite joy and the depths of sorrow. The Yorkshire-born singer/songwriter broke out in the mid-‘00s with the warm groove of “Put Your Records On”, a buoyant single that married acoustic pop and soul. Subsequent releases reveal layers of depth in both subject matter and production: “I'd Do It All Again”, from 2010's The Sea, maps oceans of grief over rivulets of guitar; “Been to the Moon”, from 2016's The Heart Speaks in Whispers, uses sinewy funk for a tentative, lusty flirtation.
