I have a new appreciation for jazz music. Jazz is not a genre you hear everyday or see on music charts in Canada. Lack of exposure makes it difficult to find some good musicians. Winterplay and Nouvelle Vague are two of the very few groups i've discovered in recent years. They are more of the bossa nova genre. Bossa nova is a combination of jazz and samba. It's not instrumental or ballad yet very soothing. The instrumental notes are staccato and vocals are pretty subdued.
Nouvelle Vague, a French band that does mostly covers but in bossa nova style.
