Spec me some female singers

[titaniumx3]

Nothing like kicking back and listening to some soothing female vocals but looking to broaden my collection a little. Whilst I'm usually open to all types of vocals, I'm specifically looking for the more relaxing type, singers like Norah Jones or Alison Krauss

I'm mostly interested in the vocals from a technical standpoint. I don't really care about the music behind it that much or the lyrics, so long as it's not rediculously bad and interferes with the vocals.

So what are your favourites?
