One of the most iconic and instantly recognizable voices in music history is back in a way you've never heard before. Macy Gray makes her Chesky Records debut with her new Jazz infused album, "Stripped". Paired with an awe inspiring jazz ensemble that includes Ari Hoenig, Daryl Johns, Russell Malone, and Wallace Roney, Macy's voice is given the space and freedom to truly shine. Featuring new original songs, intriguing covers, and stunning new arrangements of her classic hits like "I Try", there's something for everyone on this timeless recording.

Chesky Records has been known for its audiophile recordings for over thirty years. Over this time, the label has released its share of titles that have crossed over into the audiophile zeitgeist and become "must-have" audiophile recordings. Among these, is The World's Greatest Audiophile Vocal Recordings, the original vocal compilation released by the label. In years since, this compilation has proven to be an ideal introduction to the label for newcomers, and a great introduction to new artists or releases from the label to the hardcore Chesky audience.

"The Trouble with Being Myself" is the third studio album by American singer-songwriter Macy Gray, released by Epic Records. The album peaked at number 44 on the Billboard 200, and by February 2007, it had sold 134,000 copies in the United States.
