Peyroux was born in Athens, Ga., but spent her teenage years busking the streets of Paris when she moved there after her parents’ divorce. She has nine albums to her credit, including 2004’s “Careless Love,” which contains her original “Don’t Wait Too Long” and a collection of covers of songs by the likes of Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan, Elliott Smith and Hank Williams. Concert tickets start at $49.50.
