Who is this girl we are hearing on the new MacBook Air computer commercial? Could she be the next Feist? Her name is Yael Naim and not only was she born in Paris and used to play shows with Wynton Marsalis' backing band in Tel Aviv, but she successfully covers Britney Spears' song, "Toxic" on her album and makes it sound all artsy and deep. Below is the video for Yael Naim's song, "New Soul," which you might already be familiar with.

On a seperate note, tune in this Saturday night for a live performance from one of my new favorite artists, Thao. She will be performing a few songs during my "Amy Goes Nuts!" show, which starts at 9pm.
