I'll start by talking about Amy Winehouse (Website, Myspace) who featured on the Jazzworld stage....

They are calling Adele Adkins (or better known as Adele) the new "Amy" (Winehouse). It is no surprise, because I thought their vocals are very similar, after listening to her "Chasing Pavement" from her debut album, 19.

The album's been out in the UK since January, and after hitting the top 40 UK charts, and going platinum in two months, she was signed to Columbia Records in the US. Her record, according to the last press release, will be made available to US fans on all traditional formats on Tuesday, June 10^th.

Already, her video is making its round on VH1, and from talking to people, I felt that they are all very excited about Adele.

There's good news, tomorrow starts her US tour at Los Angeles's Roxy Theatre, it continues to June 21^st before her return to the UK, starting in Paris and onto London and Japan. See her entire tour information on the sidebar on the right.

So far, populated areas have all sold out (Los Angeles, Chicago, Seattle, New York), so I suggest you buy your tickets in advance if you want a guarantee seating (or you can try your luck with her ticket contest). Already demands for New York was so great, an additional date was added for June 11^th.

So, a little trivia, apparently the album is called 19 as that's her age when the album was released in the UK. As of last May 5^th, she turned twenty years old... let's hope her next album will be called legal 21.

Adele's debut album, 19 will be out in the US on June 10^th, but I noticed that you can already buy it digitally on iTunes.
