I haven't kept her quiet Smudge, I've been raving about Nadia since her first album three years ago, her new album 'Out Of My Province' is a thing of beauty, absolutely gorgeous & without any doubt my Album of the Year, haven't stopped playing it tbh

So many singer/songwriters are promoted on here but for some reason this lass is virtually ignored

Nadia is up there with the great Joni Mitchell imo!
