Madeleine Peyroux performs her captivating ninth album, Let's Walk, the singer-songwriter's most assured and courageous work to date.

Powered by the distinctive, honeyed croon that delivered her from the Paris streets to concert halls, these unabashedly personal songs, all co-written by Madeleine Peyroux, deftly interweave jazz, folk, and chamber pop, with themes ranging from the confessional to the political, from whimsy to yearning.

In every note, Peyroux digs deep, rendering this exquisite work with the disarming grace and gravitas of an artist in peak form; continuing a scintillating conversation with her audience – and with the world at large. 

Let’s Walk will be set free in venues, effortlessly dovetailing with her beloved versions of Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan, and Tom Waits classics. As she learned in her busking years, a great song can wield powerful magic with Let’s Walk, Madeleine Peyroux takes full ownership of that magic
