She does -- I really like her.
I watched the live FB thing they did with her singing and so forth, followed by the live video. https://www.facebook.com/postmodernjukeb...344163459/
(Scott gets the lighting and sound tuned up at about 7:30)
The new PMJ digs are quite an upgrade. In the past, for example, Scott would show the new video on his laptop. This time a screen lowered from the ceiling and they projected it (I think I would have just gone with a 65" television or similar). I think Scott bought a bunch of new stuff -- lights, camera, etc. Not surprising with the big bucks PMJ has been pulling in on the tours. And he has a cinematographer -- note the visible drummer.
It appears that Scott likes her, too.

RE: Postmodern Jukebox
Quote:Featuring an ever-rotating cast of lead vocalists, backup singers, and seasoned musicians, (Postmodern Jukebox) injects a healthy dose of vintage charm into contemporary pop hits released by some of today’s biggest stars. The brilliant irony of it all is how the new songs are given a fresh and exciting makeover simply by slowing the tempo, tossing in some old-time brassy beats, and avoiding autotune altogether. Most of the time, I’ve found, PMJ makes mediocre songs sound amazing and great songs even better than before.
Since the birth of this vintage-soul group in 2011, PMJ has tackled prominent songs from a host of different artists spanning virtually all genres. Miley Cyrus’s in-your-face “We Can’t Stop” drips defiance and rebellion in its original version. In PMJ’s remake, these sounds are subdued, the song seemingly pulled straight out of a 1920s speakeasy. The band’s bouncy version of “Thrift Shop” sounds more like a spunky, early ’20s tune and less like the iconic hit from dynamic hip-hop duo Macklemore and Ryan Lewis. Even Ginuwine’s raunchy “Pony” boasts an appealing, old-timey aesthetic. And those aren’t even the best covers—see any PMJ song featuring Haley Reinhart for reference.
