Rachael Yamagata, Radnor & Lee

From major label artist to indie crowd-funder, Rachael Yamagata at the piano evokes Norah Jones and Fiona Apple, though she’s often compared to Bonnie Raitt and Ray Lamontagne for her soulful heartache. The Woodstock-based Virginia native, 41, supports 2018 EP Porch Songs with personal reminisces and reimagined music from her five-LP catalog of acoustic folk-rock inspired by Bruce Springsteen’s VH1 Storytellers. – Christina Garcia
