Really like this artist but a little daunted by how much she put out, any tips, similar artists? I'm also a big fan of Ellen McIlwaine is anyone else into this kind of sound? 

Yeah a fan of Laura .  Check out the documentary on Karen Dalton on bbc iplayer at the moment really like her too.

Thanks, don't know her, I'll take a decco. 

Laura - Eli and the 13th confession is amazing, a desert island disc for me

The LP of covers with Labelle ‘Gonna Take a Miracle’ absolutely essential

Carolyn Peyton

Karen Dalton as above 💥 amazing voice

 Carole King of course…

cheers Sutty

Karen Dalton, what a voice and wasn't aware of her before, thank you, music really is a blessing. 

...not quite in the same vein but lovely none the less...

recent reissue via melodies international...

These artists kinda remind me of Julie Driscoll (Julie Tippets), Julia Holter, who did an exceptional version of 'Hello Stranger' and Penny Goodwin, who had a single on Sidney records back in the day, an album of tracks via the Fryer few years back. Her 'What's Goin On' and 'Trade Winds' are stand outs for me.

You guys should check out a west coast singer called Audrey Martells, she turns up all over the place as backing singer and did a very worthy version of 'Pastures of Plenty' which i always thought could not be re done any better than the origional.

...and this beauty...

prob closer to the Ellen Mcllwaine, cover of can't find my way home in vibe...
