How's about..

Nina Simone! There are so many Nina colours.
I'm still thinking about the articulations I'd prefer..

Eliza Carthy could do vox and violins..
There's something lovely about her tone in both cases.

You could have a set of Temptations Bass vox too, courtesy of the late Melvin Franklin.

(sorry. )

Seriously, put on 'Dance and Hum Along' ..

Laters, I must get to graftin'.
