From the very first track on Macy Gray's new album 'Big', that unique voice is instantly recognisable as one of the most distinctive in all of pop music.
The singer-songwriter-performer earned a Grammy for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance for her 1999 hit single, 'I Try', which also received nominations for Song of the Year and Record of the Year. Her debut album 'On How Life Is' went on to sell more than 7 million copies worldwide. Her second album, 2001's 'The Id', produced such intriguing tracks as 'Psychopath', 'Sexual Revolution' and 'Sweet Baby'. Gray’s worldwide touring led to followings in countries such as Israel, Australia, Spain, Italy, Germany and Holland. Her songs have appeared on the soundtracks of such movies as Rush Hour 2 (with Fatboy Slim, Slick Rick and Black Eyed Peas), Mona Lisa Smile, 8 Mile, Chicago (with Queen Latifah and Lil' Kim) and most recently, Denzel Washington's Déjà vu.
Now, Macy Gray is back after nearly four years, with a dynamic new effort that spotlights those classic pipes in a variety of stylistic settings.
