Recorded in Los Angeles in a club setting in January 2009, this concert film captures for the first time the unique voice of Madeleine Peyroux, live. She and her remarkable band perform a mixture of her distinctively-styled covers, alongside the very personal songs she has written for her album, 'Bare Bones'.

Madeleine tells her story in her own words in the included exclusive documentary, featuring footage & interviews with her in Paris + New York. This intimate portrait also features interviews with Madeleine's mother; long time producer, Larry Klein; the man who found her, Yves Beauvais; co-writer, David Batteau; voice coach, Joan Lader; musician and friend, Danny Fitzgerald; and Wall Street Journal writer, Christopher J Farley. These interviews, archive footage plus live performances build an insight into an artist in full flow, and at the height of her powers.

Finally, 'Somethin' Grand' also includes five exclusive acoustic performances.
