I would describe it as
um, eccentric French singer-songwriter-type chanson. If that helps, which it probably doesn't.

_{The trouble with the singer-songwriter tag these days is it implies some ponce who's learnt his third chord on a guitar swaggering into an open mic night with an undue sense of self-importance and a group of friends who've been told to make a lot of noise once he's finished his self-indulgent arse-scraping of a song...}

There's a half-decent selection up on www.myspace.com/emilyloizeau although it's missing some of the highlights from her first album - which, unlike your average singer-songwriter, was refreshingly different to the second.

Not heard of this Ingrid Michaelson though - she any good?

I shall have a listen when I get home
Ingrid Michaelson is also a singer songwriter, mellow ballad type stuff.
