The next album, The Locksmith Cometh, was released in 2007. Nedelle grew up studying classical violin and performing in musicals, with hopes of a Broadway career.

It must be two years since I first heard her. Shame on me for not having listened to her more since then.

Her voice reminds me a lot of Frida Hyvonen. Good stuff.
