Madeleine Peyroux
The following description was submitted by the event organizer.
Powered by her honeyed, unmistakable voice, these ten original songs—co-written with longtime collaborator Jon Herington—blend jazz, folk, and chamber-pop with striking intimacy. Confessional and political, whimsical and yearning, Peyroux delivers them with the disarming grace of an artist at her creative peak.
For the ardently civic-minded Peyroux, Let’s Walk continues an ongoing dialogue with her audience and the wider world. “Art is engagement, community,” she says. “Music is the only way I’ve ever built community.” Written during the pandemic in what she calls “a shadow of reckoning,” the album captures reflection, resilience, and renewal. Producer Elliott Scheiner (Fleetwood Mac, The Eagles) urged her to record only originals—revealing Peyroux’s voice as both songwriter and storyteller of conscience.
