Lori Carson has a sweet/sultry voice and I guess (unfortunately ) she'd be lumped into the singer/songwriter category. Lyrics & singing are soulful often dealing with relationships & dependency.
She also draws many comparisons to Beth Orton, however I listen to Carson more frequently than Orton. Also, Bill Laswell seems to appear on most of her work, giving the music a deep, downbeat groove that probably made me link the music style with Roxy Music. Her albums have a soothing, relaxed vibe, but are also involving and emotional. good stuff, check out some soundbites on Amazon.
