Captain Haley Bonar

No, she's not, at least not that I know of, but the song I'm listening to right now is called "Captain, Captain" and it is beautiful. "Captain, Captain" is one of the songs on her latest album Lure the Fox.

Backed up by the band Mike Micheal, Chris Morrissey and Luke Anderson; Haley Bonar is untouchable in her talents both vocally and on the piano. You will recognize Haley's voice if you bought Andrew Bird's new album, which is how I first heard her. She is in four of the songs on that album.

She shares the label, Afternoon Records, with artists such as "Mouthful of Bees" and "I, Colossus."

I think she sounds a little bit like Shawn Colvin, but she has also been compared to Aimee Mann. Either way those comparisons mean she has a great voice.

Take a listen:
