Agreed, completely.  I came across Ms. Gardot in the same way and was 
just knocked out.  I've got a thing for women jazz singers, but she is 
something else.  For an even better treat, I plugged her name into 
pandora and now have a steady stream of amazing voices, many of which 
are also in their 20s-30s.  Another favorite of mine is Esperanza 
Spalding, who sings and plays upright bass, and is maybe 25.

I'd say the future of *good* music is looking (and sounding) very good.
