I put one of her songs on my last mix Maybe Tomorrow.
She's going to be on the tube in the Philly area Monday during the day. Here's an e-mail I got from her.
Her album Urban Angel gets national release in August.
Check her out.

Let's get this out of the way-she grew up in Indiana, true, but singer Natalie Walker isn't some cash-poor fame-seeking biding her time here until New York comes calling. She's one of us now. When she tells you she lives in Fishtown-and loves it-there's no hipster irony in her voice. And that voice-it's somehow effortless & urgent, joyous & melancholy, smoky & sweet all at once. On Urban Angel, her stellar debut record released nationally this month, the 25 year-old channels the subtle moments of Sarah McLachlan's Fumbling towards Ecstasy and nods at trip-hop icons Portishead. Live, Walker doesn't rely on vocal histrionics to hypnotize. There's no choreography, no rehearsed crowd banter, no pretension. She's exactly how we like 'em in this town. Just her four-piece band laying down a gorgeous backdrop. And that voice. Hear her at Phillymag.com
