I was watching an Alter Bridge video and the lead singer Myles Kennedy said to check this guy out and I am glad I did.

Trixie Whitley
She sings in the band Black Dub, they're really good! (Daniel Lanois, Trixie Whitley, Brian Blade and Daryl Johnson)

@kareljuwet He has a daughter that sings???

One of the greats of our time. Or anytime, really. Thanks to the internet, now we can all know his beautiful music......bittersweet. to just be hearing these songs now and a tragedy to think of all the people who never knew his music when he was alive.....

That which cannot be reproduced. To compare Whitley with Hendrix does neither justice IMO. Different styles, albeit similar influences. Love both for who they were and what they created.
-
I hear so much affinities between him and his daughter, in the way they form their words and change their voices during a sentence, listen to it!

I always equate Chris Whitley as the love child of Jimi Hendrix and Chet Baker.

He recorded Hendrix' "Drifting". It's on his coveralbum 'Perfect Day'.
