Beth Hirsch - Early Days (2000)

She's the earthy voice behind Air's stunning tracks "All I Need" and "You Make It Easy," but singer/songwriter Beth Hirsch exudes her own melodic grace on her debut Early Days. She bridges powdery lyrics and floating acoustics throughout the nine-track album, singing from an inner spirituality. Her words are perfectly orchestrated on songs like "Gabrielle" and "Come a Day." She's poetically raw like Sarah McLachlan and Joni Mitchell, something undeniably alluring.
